[QUOTE="scratch, post: 94408, member: 1674"] Truer words have never been spoken. I work a 95% residential route, and I spend a lot of time in driveways. I was on a country route one time that had a couple of driveways that were a quarter of a mile one way. No way would the company give you a realistic time allowance to walk one of those. I have had about three accidents, all minor, involving backing the last nine years on my present area. You have to be careful, a lot of it is area knowledge where you know if there is a turn around at the end of that long driveway or not. You have to avoid backing out on a busy road at all cost. As drivers, we are expected to be perfect, but are expected to work at an unrealistic stops per hour number. [/QUOTE]
