How much time should be alllowed for a 605-mile car trip,?

Question

If the car will be traveling at an average speed of 55 miles per hour?

Answer 1

11 hours, plus time for pit stops.

Answer 2

depending on stops and traffic, i would leave myself about 12 hours.

Answer 3

Since you will be traveling at 55 mph you will not be on the interstate. At least I hope you won't at that speed.

So:

Secondary roads. Add two hours for the slow up of going through towns.

At least one fuel stop 30 minutes to 45 minutes if you eat too.

One or two other 15 minute breaks depending on how long you can drive without stopping for mother nature.

15 to 16 hours

I just did a 1000 mile Florida to NJ non stop run in 15 hours so the actual time it takes you could vary quite a bit.

Answer 4

this is basic 5th grade math. Is this a homework question?

Answer 5

go and plan your trip on www.randmcnally.com. The estimated time is really good.
