How many miles is 1 hour driving?
I’ve been trying to plot out how long it will take me to get to my parents’ house, which is about 80 miles away. The drive is a mix of highway and city. How many miles can you drive in an hour?

I hope you have a good playlist for the trip to Mom and Dad’s! If you are driving a mixture of city and highway roads, your average speed for the journey will be around 40 miles per hour.
With that in mind, you can expect to cover roughly 40 miles in one hour of driving.
If you’re driving long stretches of highway for a bulk of the trip with fluctuating highway speeds between 55 and 70 miles per hour, you could get closer to 60 miles under your belt within the one-hour mark.
No matter where you’re headed, make sure you’re hitting the road armed with a good
