DOT limits professional drivers to 11 hours driving, 14 hours combined driving and on duty not driving with a 30 minute break period between the third hour and 8th hour on duty ending up with a 13 1/2 hour day. DOT also requires a 10 hour rest period before taking the wheel again. After 60 hours combined driving and on duty a 10 hour rest period followed by a 24 hour period of duty for a total of 34 hours off is required. These rules are designed to keep fatigued drivers off the road.
I drive no more than 65 mph for safety and economy. Driving 65 on the interstate creates space in front of your vehicle and saves fuel.
