Do you see how this sounds like ever driver spends 2 hours in traffic in cities? You need to make sure that "in cities" modifies the drivers.
Otherwise, change "daily" to "each day," "hours" requires the plural verb, and change the last bit to "working during their commute."

Grammar Geek change "daily" to "each day,"GG, I thought they were interchangeable. How does daily sound to you?

I prefer daily to come before the noun. My daily commute. My daily routine.
