They want me to drive 900 miles a day. Here’s the text

Not that company isn’t totally full of s###BUT if all in 75 mph states
(Yes there’s some w/higher sections)
Loggin to keep dot happy <5mph under Average
It takes 11.75 hours clock time to run 11
.25 pt/fuel/wherever .5 break
10 off leaves 2.25
So 13.25 in 24 (one day as dispatch stated
Would net you 927 and change
I’m sure that would be their argument

 

Well I drive 800+ miles a day sometimes by using PC before getting loaded and once I get back into Illinois within a certain distance of our terminal.

No one would legit put that in a text, seems like a hoax.

 

Don't delete the message, when that company has an accident, you can forward it to the ambulence chasing lawyers to show them what you drivers have to put up with when these pos companies are allowed to exist. These companies have to go - 900 miles ... right.

 

i drove 1,050 miles once in a day, legally with elog.
Lincolnville, KS to Birmingham AL then dh back into MS then went to bed.

 

The only way youre legally getting 900+ in a day is a non governed truck in a high speed limit state (Texas, Utah) or are able to use Ag Exemption 395.1 (k)

My biggest legal day was 992 on ELD in a 67 mph truck.

 

900/13.75=65.xxxxmph. Doable.

HOWEVER, I require, as a company driver, $200k/year, and an 80 mph truck.
