[QUOTE="outta hours, post: 439925, member: 4568"] Because your argument in regards to my misinformation has nothing to do with the question that was asked by the original poster or my (CORRECT)response to them. The original question was about exceeding 11 hours of work in a single day. The 11 hr. rule only applies to time spent driving the vehicle. Actual driving time,to which my point was that it was impossible for a pkg. car driver to drive that much in a single shift. Drive time is only calculated when the wheels are in motion. A large portion of a pkg. car drivers paid day occurs when the vehicle is stopped. That is the point I was making to the original poster. UPS does not have an IVIS (like in feeders) in pkg. cars to keep track of drive time because it is unnecessary. A delivery driver would never come close to actually driving 11 hours. I never said that pkg. drivers could not get close to the 60 hr. limit and be taken out of service early. That happens quite often this time of year. The 60 hr. rule was not mentioned anywhere by the original poster. I was only responding to the question that was asked. I appreciate your attempt to point out my errors. Of which you were so very confident that I made. I enjoy the discussions and the information that can be obtained here. I have little patience with anyone who feels they need to be catty (which you were) hence the parenthesis with your comments to me. I suggest before you respond with your great knowledge of all things UPS, that you might spend a tad bit longer reading the actual question that was asked before responding negatively to someone trying to help.
