In the US, commercial truck drivers cannot drive more than 11 hours in a 14 hours period. Also, the driver must have 10 consecutive hours of rest before driving again.
If you drive eight or nine hours a day it will take six days. If you drive 12 hours a day you can make it in five. So if you have other drivers with you and drive 24 hours a day, you can do it 86 hours.
Yes. They can drive in the dark but not between the hours of midnight and 7:00 A.M.
There is no required no. of hours. the permit is good for 6 mos. and you can take the drive test whenever you feel like you are ready.
Depends where you are. For OTR drivers, you MUST stop after 10 hours. But that was Ohio.
In theUS the Hours of Service (HOS) of commercial drivers are regulated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administrationa (FMCSA). Commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers are limited to 11 cumulative hours driving in a 14-hour period, which must then be followed by a rest period of no less than 10 consecutive hours. Drivers employed by carriers in "daily operation" may not drive more than 70 hours within any period of 8 consecutive days. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truck_driver
It would take you a maximum of 39 hours, non-stop. You would have to travel a distance of 3,948 kilometers (2,454 miles).
Its about 22 to 24 hours of driving. If you have a couple of drivers and limit yourself to 8 hours of shared driving per day then that's about three days...!
They may drive up to 11 hours within a 14 hour period. After that, there is a mandatory ten hour break.
It's their hours on which the laws are based, not the distance they cover during their driving times.
