New driver research from Vision Express reveals in London:

• 44% are choosing to have their main holiday in the UK this year, compared with 30% last year

• On average, drivers will be travelling for almost three hours to their UK holiday destination with three people in the vehicle, including one child

• 40% are overdue an eye test, with 6% admitting to never having had one

• 30% of drivers are staycationing in the South West this year, followed by Scotland and Wales (13%)

• Drivers are more likely to prepare for a long journey by stocking their vehicles with drinks and snacks and making sure they have lots of music rather than checking their eyesight is fit to drive

• More than half (56%) of drivers don’t know what the legal eyesight requirement for driving is
