I'll have to travel a 14 hours drive next week (+traffic jams+ferry) when I go on holidays with a company of friends. In the evening, mostly highways. None of the girls assigned to my car can drive.
Of course I'll have enough rest before, I'll stop regularly to refresh, maybe have some coffee, listen to 'non-sleeping' music etc.
I have a lot of driving experience, when it was an absolute must, I could drive 10-12 hours without problem. But I don't want to push to the limits, safety first.
Is there any best practice how long legs are the most optimal with many and how long stops?
As far I know, explicit time regulations apply only to non-private drivers.
My current plan is to drive 7 hours, have 1.5-2 hours sleep and rest in a parking, and then drive 4 hours to the ferry, where I could hopefully lay down again.
If I make longer breaks I think it is more difficult to 'restart' again.
What's your experience? (i am talking about safe driving here, not guiness records)
Thanks.

I've been looking to buy a 2006 chevy impala LT2. The dealer has one that was customed order by a different person that had to back out. The msrp is 23725 with added options. The dealer is offering me 20499 after the rebate. He said on the phone thats it not negotiable. Do you think thats a good deal or should i try to get him to go for 20000 out the door with tax included when i go there?

I was driving my car today when I hit a bump and heard a SNAP. When I pulled into the gas station, I noticed the whole front end of my lincoln was resting on the front tires. The air compressor was coming on, but it was not lifting the front end of the car. Does anyone have any idea what might have happened?????

Yeah, I know plus fuel is "a higher grade of fuel" than unleaded. But what does that mean exactly? Does the car like plus better?
