Difficulty sleeping in the heat is one of the key reasons that Briton is the grumpiest month for Britons. According to a new study by motel chain Travelodge, 88% of respondents revealed they lost sleep every night, with two hours being the average amount lost. Some 70% of parents said they were awakened at least three times a night by children struggling in the heat.
Perhaps it’s the heat, or perhaps it’s the sleep deprivation, but the studyalso found one in two (49%) drivers travelling in the heat would shout at another motorist out of frustration. One in four said they would use bad language, 40% would employ rude gestures and one in five would tailgate another driver.
More than a quarter (27%) of commuters said they would shout at a partner or child while travelling in hot conditions.
