Hard to say. I can say this I have 6,000 miles on my 19 month old car, and my seven year old car I sold 19 months ago had 26k miles on it. So about 4k a year or so?

For ~15 of the 25 years I've been driving I had a company vehicle and averaged ~15k miles per year.

So, ~225,000 in company vehicles and 100,000-150,000 in personal vehicles maybe?

I think I'd be around a million for a lifetime number.

Most on one car was just under 300,000 miles.

I had a 100 mile a day commute for ~12 years.

Now? Maybe do 5k a year. (retired)

According to my phone's goggle maps app in my November update I have driven 27,122 miles in 2020 or 1 time around the world . Still have December to go. I have probably driven a similar amount of miles over the past 25 years.

I'd estimate over a million but I drive for a living and most of my jobs have been mobile.

First licensed to drive in 1975, first car of my own in 1976. I'll estimate about 780-800,000. I have had three cars, including my current one, that I've put 162,000 (before I wrecked it), 182,000 and (the current one) 169,000 miles, which accounts for a pretty good chunk of them. Shortest commute one way: two blocks (I only drove in bad weather). Longest commute one way: 71 miles. On the latter, this is the road I drove:

My brother in law, a now retired farmer, laughed and said he has plowed far more miles of pasture on his tractors than he has driven on public road s with his pickups and cars.

Bought a new Altima in May 2007. Put about 335K miles on it before replacing it with my current Cherokee in June 2015, which currently has 223K miles, so that's 558K right there I know for sure. Prior to 2007, I was certainly driving less, but driving less for 11 years, so even at half as much (which is probably conservative), that puts me close to 800K so far.

Probably close to a million miles. I've been driving since 1995 and have had some jobs where I really put some decent miles on. I've driven in 36 states and have even driven box trucks towing trailers across many miles multiple times.

Most recent trip was a 1,700 trip from Florida to Texas, got a few hours sleep then drove 800 miles from Texas to California for a few days then back to Texas a few days later.

My heaviest 1 month period of driving was about 12,000 miles, most of it was solo.

I’ve often wondered about this. I travel a lot for work so it’s really hard to say. My personal vehicles get driven less than 5k a year. But I rent a car pretty much weekly and sometimes drive quite a lot if I’m touring customers in an area.

I wish I’d kept track.
