How long does it take to drive 3000 kilometers?

For vehicles traveling on the highway at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, it takes approximately 30 hours to cover 3000 kilometers. Here is relevant information: 1. Regulations: According to the rules, the minimum speed for vehicles on highways should not be less than 60 kilometers per hour, and the maximum speed should not exceed 120 kilometers per hour. There is no uniform speed limit for lanes on highways, as different sections may have different limits. Drivers can follow the navigation prompts or highway signs for guidance. 2. Notes: On most highways, the speed limit for vehicles in the first lane is between 110 and 120 kilometers per hour, the second lane between 90 and 110 kilometers per hour, and the third lane between 60 and 90 kilometers per hour. Vehicles must adhere to these speed limits.
Last time I drove a long distance, it was also about 3,000 kilometers, from my hometown to the south for work, driving our family's old sedan. According to my usual habit, I maintain around 100 kilometers per hour on the highway, which means just driving would take 30 hours. But humans aren't machines—after driving for two hours, I need to take a break, use the restroom, and have some water. Adding in meal times and sleep, I usually drive about 8 hours a day, so it took me roughly four days to complete the trip. You also have to account for traffic jams and unexpected situations. Last time, I encountered road construction on the highway and had to detour, which added half a day. So, I recommend not just calculating the driving time—leave at least 20% buffer time to be safe.
