How many hours does driving from Miami to New York take?
I’m taking a big road trip over spring break, so I can party in Miami before visiting my parents in New York. How many hours of driving does it usually take to get from Miami to New York?

Spring break is always fun—especially when you fill it with friends, family, and road trips. That said, driving from Miami to New York takes 18.5 hours without traffic.
Once you account for potential obstacles on the road and traffic, it’s likely the trip will take well over 20 hours. So if you’re planning to visit your parents and Miami during spring break, then you may be pressed for time.
Of course, it’s still possible if you plan accordingly. For example, if you schedule minimal stops and prepare for nine hours of driving each day, you should be able to make it to New York in two days. But if that seems too fast-paced, you can always take an extra day to enjoy the road.
Keep in mind that driving tired can be dangerous. Drowsiness and
distracted driving
are two of the most common causes of accidents in the United States. To make sure you stay as safe as possible, pace yourself. Taking an extra day to enjoy the route can be an easy way to make the trip safer and more entertaining.Another way to make sure you’re safe on the road is to find the right car insurance policy with
