With the state of some of the roads in the UK it can vary from 50 miles
upwards. My partner only has to drive 15 miles into work each day and
normally takes her half an hour. Sometimes though it will take between 1
hour and 1.5 hours. A couple of weeks ago she left work at 5pm and didnt get
back home until 10:30pm.

When we first started dating, I drove down to be with her at the weekends -
270 mile drive. This journey used to take between 5 and 9 hours depending on
how many accidents/roadworks/weather etc.
