Italy experiences unprecedented tourist influx at lakeside resorts, resulting in traffic gridlock and travel delays.

Italy faces a record wave of tourists causing traffic chaos at famous lakeside resorts. Boat drivers complain about overcrowding as traffic comes to a stop, with some days taking an hour to travel 10 kilometers due to small two-lane roads unable to handle traffic or larger cars. This problem has led to a significant inconvenience for tourists who rent cars or rely on taxis for transportation.
