    We dont have dates..

    You have 14hrs in a day to do 11hrs on duty.. The 30 mi break has nothing to do with your on duty hours..

    I do 10 mins on duty at shipper/reciever 8-10 fueling and I was doing 10min on duty pti's, but I moved those to 15..

    I've had a road side before where I had mostly 10min pti's and had no issue but was told we need to do 15 so I since started doing 15.

    The deal is, on those loads, I'm not at a shipper/reciever each day. Some days are driving only with no loading/unloading time..


    Honestly if you dont think you can do consecutive 600 mile days you guys are not trying hard, specially if you can drive faster than me..

    Dude Ive done 600 miles driving 60mph.. maybe you need to stop less if you can't do that.. Try driving at night time, I usually set myself up so I'm starting my drive at 1-2am. Guess what no traffic and tons of parking spots when you finish your day at 2-3pm.

    I thought you guys were truck drivers not nancy boys.. 600 miles is not hard to do....

    Not saying that. saying your truck cant average 65 mph of its top speed is 65. Count all the time you spend under 65. I do a lot of 300 mile days and not many guys can run it with me. But you wouldn't understand that.
