    I just want to get an idea of what the most realistic amount is for each day of layover. Thanks.

    If you really need to worry about layover pay, you may be at the wrong company.

    One of the things in trucking that's too hard to obtain for a driver and brokers barely want to pay detention or layover to a truck
