    Well since we are pointing things out I'd like to point out I never said you can drive 13.25 hours in a SHIFT. I said, and demonstrated, that you can drive 13.25 hours legally in a single day(day defined as midnight to midnight). You stated, incorrectly that you can drive only 11 hours in a DAY. There is a difference. If you're too simple to understand the difference between the words shift and day that is your problem not mine.

    Well I do between 2800 and 3400 in 6 days, a week, week after week and home.

    The math will just mess you up! Lol--------

    This week I did 2760 in 5 days and home. 1 layover and 5 drop and hooks and 1 scale, 2 showers and 3 refueling's.

    With a 64 mph Truck.

    And that's with a weekly restart to boot!

    It would avg about 550-570 aday, thats real world-------

    Now that thats all clear...... Thanks for all the input and break downs. Very helpful. Whats the difference between transporting property and carrying property? (remember Im trying to learn) BTW. Also it says there are different rules for interstate and intrastate. So that may be causing a different interpretation on some of your opinions.

    Interstate is between states. Intrastate is within a state.


    get interstate on your license
