Commercial truck drivers are subject to different rules. They used to have a bunch of problems, like taking speed and driving for ridiculous stretches. Apparently, the rules in the states are 11 hrs/day max w/ 3 hrs of rest breaks [1].

- nverno 4y agoMy mistake, well I certainly don't remember learning anything about legal driving limits- I'd be shocked if those were laws and not some agencies guidelines.
