[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 685057, member: 927"] While you want to make this a dance, the truth is that there is not a simple yes / no answer to the question. If you forced me to answer yes or no, then I would have to say that yes, the time is accounted for. Here is what happens. When the allowances are worked up, lets say that it comes to an 8.5 planned day BEFORE PDF. (It does not really work this way, this is just illustrative). Additional time is added into the planned day BEFORE the allowance is generated. It used to be 15%. I don't know how much additional time it is today. So, if the calculated allowance gave 8.5 hours of time, PDF would have added in an additional hour or so extra for undefined activities, delays, fatigue, and personal time. As far as the dispatch goes, Ov / Un is added into the plan. If a route had a 9 hour planned day, but the driver is .4 over allowed, the dispatch would say that it was a 9.4 hour dispatch. It does NOT say that its a 9 hour dispatch. P-Man [/QUOTE]
