The research, compiled by the AA and Populus, found that deciding which route to take on a car journey is the most likely topic to start a row. This is closely followed by driving too fast, refusing to ask for directions when lost and having noisy children as passengers in the car.
It's probably therefore not surprising to discover, that of the 23,000 plus AA members that took part in the poll, two in three have had an 'in-car' row. Interestingly, those aged between 18 and 24 are also said to be more likely to have an argument while driving compared to those over the age of 65. Those aged between 35 and 44 were more likely to be concerned about noisy kids.
Looking at the different UK regions, motorists in Northern Ireland are the most likely to lose their cool, while those in the south-west of England are the least-argumentative while in the car.
Commenting on the findings, Edmund King, AA President, said: "Long journeys often get fraught at times. The key thing is taking time to prepare well for the journey which should help keep arguments at bay."
The top 10 causes of 'in-car' arguments are:
1. Knowing the way to go
2. Driving too fast
3. Not asking for directions
4. Noisy children
5. Shouting at other drivers
6. Temperature in the car
7. Not agreeing on where to eat
8. Not agreeing on what to listen to
9. Topic of conversation
10. Driving too slowly
