You’ll figure all that out when you start driving. There are many different scenarios.
LoneRanger, Rideandrepair, Diesel Dave and 5 others Thank this. -
your the one planning your trip, so ask yourself if you got up early enough.
stop anywhere you can legally get into for lunch, they don't know or care as long as you deliver on time.
well, they shouldn't care. depends on how anal your company is.MACK E-6, Rideandrepair, Diesel Dave and 9 others Thank this. -
when they axe why you stopped for dinner, use the old stand by, “What? bad area… breaking up.” then hang up.

I usually woke up 2 hours before time to start driving so I could shower, eat breakfast, etc. You have appointment times & nobody wants to hear ANY excuse so you figure out what you need to do, if you have time, and show up on time. You might eat breakfast at the customer, if you bring food with you.Zoltan1a, Rideandrepair, Diesel Dave and 3 others Thank this.

You can hold it until your 14 is up ?

If you need to do all that stuff before you start driving, I guess you will need much longer than a 10 hour break.
Unless you only sleep 2 or 3 hours.Rideandrepair, hope not dumb twucker and austinmike Thank this.
