This was followed closely by their children and parents, a new survey from the RAC has revealed.
The poll also found that "carguments" among family members tend to increase during winter months, with 54% already admitting they have had a heated exchange.
Elsewhere, the findings revealed that 15% of drivers and passengers argue more in the car than anywhere else, while one in five feel that it is the act of driving that causes them stress. A further 13% blamed in-car disagreements on the best route to take.
While 43% of drivers argued the most with their partner, talking was said to be the biggest distraction when behind the wheel, with 21% afraid that an argument could have caused an accident.
Simon Williams, spokesman for the RAC, said: "Arguments can break out between family and friends at any time, but in the winter, where journeys can be delayed or take longer as a result of having to defrost windscreens or take alternative routes, it can be particularly stressful.
"Many 'carguments' actually begin well before getting into the car and just get worse as a result of being in a confined space together.
"If you can allow more time to get everything and everyone organised before your journey you will no doubt reduce the stress level which then eases the pressure on your drive."
