How to avoid the morning rush-hour

Rush hour traffic is a problem in many towns and cities

, as commuters find themselves caught in the deluge of people struggling to make it to work on time. However, there are a number of ways you can avoid rush hour and get to work in plenty of time, without having to get up extra early.

If you find yourself struggling to make it to your office or workplace on time in the mornings, consider whether any parts of your morning regime could be comfortably moved to the night before. You may prefer to spend your evenings relaxing rather than having to worry about the day ahead, but by spending time to make your lunch and even prepare your breakfast ahead of time, you can shave many precious minutes off the clock the next morning, and make it to your car in record time.

Your method of transport itself might be the area that needs improvement, however, and there are several speedy alternatives to cars that could get you to your destination faster and avoid making your own contribution to the rush hour problem. If your workplace is close enough to cycle, buying a bike can be a healthy and eco-friendly alternative, and means you'll also be able to enjoy the benefits of cycle lanes. It's not just bicycles that have their own dedicated lanes either, and by taking the bus to work in cities that operate dedicated bus lanes you'll soon be zipping past the rest of the traffic.

Not everyone is willing to give up the convenience of their own cars, of course, and why should they? However, there are a number of changes you can make to your driving habits to avoid getting caught up in the congestion. Think about the route you take to work, and whether there are any alternatives around the areas of heavy traffic - be aware that the direct route is not always the fastest, and those 'slow' country lanes you instinctively avoid could turn out to be a great time-saving solution.

Finally, if you do get caught in rush hour traffic, staying calm and focused should always be a priority. You won't get to your destination any faster by blaring the horn and giving in to road rage, and if hazards arise you'll be in a better position to avoid damage and having to seek out repairs such as windscreen replacement if you stay calm and collected.
