365. Yes, 365. The regulations are based on hours worked and hours driving. Instead of me explaining how the HOS (Hours of Service) regulations work, see the related link at the bottom to get the explanation straight from the FMCSA website.
I don't know how many hours a lorry driver can work, but an American truck driver can work 70 hours in 8 days.
I drive approx. 80,000 km/year and I do only local
10 days
If the weather is bad i.e. wet/snowy/icy this may delay the lorry driver delivering his load as he would have the drive slowly and also the other traffic would be driving slowly too which would cost even more time. There may have been accidents on the road due to the weather which would cause him to have to drive slower and all of this could cost him money - fuel, late delivery, possibly new tyres for his truck etc. The weather can affect lorry drivers in many different ways.
It actually depends on the driver. If you drive straight through, 2.5 days. Driving only durning the day, 4 days. The scienic or motorhome route can take 9 days or more. Consult Map Quest, or Google maps for route. I-10 is the straightest route, but longer drive.

There may have been accidents on the road due to the weather which would cause him to have to drive slower and possibly have to change his route causing delays.

The word lorry has two syllables. (Lor-ry)
A truck driver can legally log it in two days. If you could drive straight through with no breaks or share the driving non-stop it could be done in a day.
An occasional driver should only drive as many occasional miles as he might occasionally want to drive. The term Occasional driver is not indicative of how many miles they might drive but rather how often they may drive, there is no specific legal definition for an occasional driver. Most Insurers develop there own guidelines to determine if some fits the definition of an occasional driver. Generally an occasional driver would drive your vehicle no more than a few times a year. If they drive regularly once a week or regularly once a month, or once every 6 weeks, then they are a regular driver. By the very definition of the term, an occasional driver would not know how often they are going to drive. Any type of planned or scheduled use would define them as a regular driver.
Not an answerable question, Many Many HEB agencies and companies.
