Calculating based on the normal speed limit of 120 km/h, it would take about 6 hours. Considering some speed reduction sections and rest breaks during the journey, it is estimated to take around 7 hours. Precautions for long-distance driving: 1. Check vehicle safety in advance: Be sure to inspect the vehicle, preferably at a repair shop, carefully checking every detail, especially the tires and fuel tank, to avoid emergencies and being caught off guard. 2. Get enough rest: If you are going to drive for a long time, it is best to get enough sleep before departure and take more breaks. If possible, have someone to take turns driving with you. If not, take more breaks during the journey. 3. Always remember to fasten your seat belt: Whether it is short-distance or long-distance driving, you should always fasten your seat belt. For long-distance driving, it is even more important, and both the driver and the passenger should fasten their seat belts. If there are passengers in the back seat, it is also best to fasten their seat belts to ensure safety.
How long does it take to drive 700 kilometers? I often drive long distances, with an average speed of about 100 kilometers per hour on the highway, so the pure driving time is approximately 7 hours. However, in reality, it's impossible to drive non-stop. I usually take a 15-minute break every two hours at a service area to stretch, drink some water, and avoid fatigue driving. Adding possible traffic congestion or waiting at toll booths, the total time usually increases to around 8 hours. In rainy weather or at night when visibility is poor, I have to drive more carefully and slowly, which might extend the time to 9 hours. The key is to check tire pressure and fuel levels in advance to ensure a safe and smooth journey. Don't push the accelerator too hard just to save time—it's neither safe nor good for the car.
Running 700 kilometers, based on my personal experience, takes about 7.5 to 8 hours, depending on the situation: On highways with a speed limit of 120, the actual average speed is 95-100 kilometers per hour, so the base time is 7 hours; rest stops are essential, stopping every 150 kilometers for a snack or a break, totaling about 45 minutes in stops; if encountering traffic jams or road construction, the average speed drops below 80, extending the time to over 9 hours. It's advisable to check a traffic app before departure to avoid peak hours, maintain a calm mindset, and prioritize safe driving over anything else. In case of a flat tire or breakdown, additional time should be factored in.
