Zurich is among Europe’s most stressful cities for drivers, according to a new traffic study.

The ranking combines factors like traffic density and even how often motorists search online for directions. 

The higher the stress index, the worse the experience - and Zurich scores badly, alongside several German cities that dominate the top of the list. 

By contrast, car-friendly cities like Innsbruck and Madrid show what’s possible - a ten-kilometre journey in Innsbruck takes around twelve minutes less than in Zurich, thanks to far fewer cars and smoother traffic flow.
