For some people, commuting to work means hopping out of bed and heading to the next room to sit in a home office. For others, it involves dealing with hours of traffic on the highway.
In certain major cities, it's almost guaranteed that traffic will be horrible every single day. Our friends at WalletHub calculated the worst cities to be a driver in, and the results are pretty predictable.
