Any company drivers ever showed up a day late for a Walmart drop? Not sure I'm gonna make it. GPS shows 5 1/2 hours eta. And I've got 6:45 left to drive and I'm not one who likes to push my clock. And we all now what traffic can be like out of nowhere. Asking for another driver to relay the load is next to impossible here at western express.

Just run it! Even if it takes 6 hours, you still have 45 minutes left. And if you run outta hours while there, too bad for them. Take your break right there. While I understand not wanting to push the clock, i don't wanna work that hard either. But, you have 11 hours drive time available, and you're expected to use them all when needed.

See.This is the added stress those E-Logs create- Nevertheless,ya, You Got Time to make it.........Don't Let that Log stress you out- Your health and well-being comes first- Get there when you can safely and deliver- Unfortunately on that E-log you'll have to wait a day now to Re-Load.

Don't worry. If you are late then you will surely get an 8 hour or 10 hour break in before the trailer is unloaded. Hehehe
