Your max legal miles will be roughly 11 hours of driving at slightly above the maximum speed limit for the areas traveled through. In Nevada, you can easily burn up the desert in a loaded semi at 70MPH. In California, you'll get like 20 percent less miles. Again, you would just take 11 hours of drive time and multiply it by the average speed limit of the areas you travel through. Traffic conditions and changes in speed limit will be your biggest factors, and obviously your mileage will be faster traveling on flat terrain as opposed to mountains.

I did 632 miles from City of Industry, CA to Weed, CA in just under 11 hours. 60 mph most of the way.

One discussion is about freight rates, the other is about drivers rate per mile.Last edited: Sep 24, 2015

I once live loaded in El Paso on Monday morning and delivered in Garretsville, Ohio on Wednesday afternoon.

Years ago, I used to run Denver to Grand Junction, Co. and back 6 days a week, 512 miles rnd trip, that was 3,072 miles per week and I never left the state, each day was 11 hrs. It also helps I have a 75 mph, running in primarily 75 mph states. But I've done 3,500 miles in a 5.5 or 6 day week many times. Most miles I've ever run was 12,750 in a 31 day month, and I was parked 6 of those days.
Five weeks ago, I ran 3,460 miles in 5.5 days, totally legal on one log book. -

I don't believe they can give you moving violation, but they can write it up as a logbook violation. Will they? The safety officers where I have driven claim they will. They have said that 5 mph under is still questionable. -
I hope you are not being serious.
