Did you know Manchester has fewer cars per head of population than any other city in the UK? However, it has also been named one of the most dangerous places to drive, with almost 7,000 collisions in seven years. The A6 and A56 see a particularly high number of accidents. Plans for a Clean Air Zone in Greater Manchester have been scrapped, for now, so you don't have to worry about paying charges for driving in certain areas.

Driving in cities like Manchester puts extra strain on your car due to long periods of idling and frequent stopping and starting in traffic.
