3000 kilometers of driving on the highway, minus rest time, takes about thirty hours. If driving on national roads, it takes about fifty to sixty hours. Below are some related introductions about driving on highways: 1. Introduction to highways: Highways refer to high-speed roads, compared to medium-speed and low-speed roads. In an environment where low-speed is mainstream, low-speed is normal or standard speed, while in an environment where medium-speed is mainstream, medium-speed is normal or standard speed. 2. Precautions before driving on highways: Pay attention to checking weather and road conditions, conduct safety inspections on the vehicle, study the driving route in advance, carry a vehicle malfunction warning sign and a fire extinguisher, and determine the driving and rest plan in advance.
I've loved long-distance driving since I was young. 3,500 kilometers depends on road conditions and personal habits. At an average speed of 100 km/h, pure driving time is about 35 hours, but in reality it takes longer. I'm accustomed to taking 20-minute breaks every 4 hours to prevent fatigue driving, so total time approaches 50 hours. Dividing it into four days with 8 hours of driving per day is more reasonable, and you also need to consider traffic jams and repair stops. Safety comes first - don't push yourself too hard and ensure the vehicle is in good condition. Check tires and fuel before long trips to reduce unexpected delays. I suggest budgeting 40 to 60 hours of driving time to be safe.
As a young driver, I enjoy chasing speed. Covering 3,500 kilometers at a constant highway speed of 110 km/h would take just over 32 hours of pure driving. However, real-life complications add up: refueling, meals, restroom breaks, and traffic jams can easily add another 10 hours. I often complete the trip in two days, driving 14 hours each day with several breaks in between. Don’t forget potential delays due to weather or navigation errors. In total, it roughly amounts to about 45 hours—remember to prioritize safety and avoid speeding.
