    lol

    261 divided by 250 minutes times 60 minutes per hour equals 62.64 mph

    Of course op is on paper so it either rounds to 4 hours or 4.25 hours resulting in 65.25 mph or 61.411765 respectively depending on how many decimal places you want. :)

    Omg! If I had been driving for them I would’ve been fired so many times by now.

    Maybe they are (poorly) asking you to tone down how fast your willing to drive. Yet this is one of the many reasons that I feel, if your going to drive for annother, you really should own that truck
     
    MACK E-6 Thanks this.

    Probably not if it’s a good paying job that has you home every night.

    You're off all the time now.

    You don't have to worry about dispatch anymore.

    Depends if it was 4.1 hours or was it 4 hours and 10 minutes

    4.1 hours is actually 4 hours and 6 minutes.

    See I'm not the only one super bored today...

    I need to get back to work next week:confused:

    You’re thinking of Canada and their Metric Time of 100 minutes per hour.
    Down here we only have 60 minutes each hour. Eh
