IMPORTANT: Always save copies of your debt collection dispute letters. Also, recognize that the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act does not require collectors to respond to your dispute unless they intend to take specific actions such as pursuing court actions.
If you guessed under 30 miles per day, you would be right. Maciej Korzekwa, ThinkStock. A new American Driving Survey from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety and the Urban Institute takes a comprehensive look at how much Americans drive on a daily and yearly basis in an effort to reveal trends about driving habits.irst-year data, collected from May 2013 through May 2014 from 3,319 drivers, reveals that Americans drive, on average, 29.2 miles per day, making two trips that total 46 minutes.
Results from the 2001 NHTS show that daily travel in the United States totaled about 4 trillion miles (table 2, table A-8), an average of 14,500 miles per person per year. On a daily basis, the average person traveled 40 miles, most of it (35 miles) in a personal vehicle. Because more than one person can travel in a personal vehicle, these 35 person miles amounted to about 23 vehicle miles traveled. Annually, the total number of vehicle miles traveled in 2001 was nearly 2.3 trillion.
