  One driver max can drive 10 hours , need at least 8 hours of good undisrupted sleep . 6 hours for you to do something personal , like bring your wife go jalan , tution for children , read newspaper , surf net ...... dun sacrifice all your time for the passengers .

  driving omo also need planning plan drive day / night or split shift - see which is best to achieve your target in shortest hrs plan off day - throw rental or have super relief plan number of hours to drive - the longer hours you drive without proper rest, long term you will get to feel more tire. take it like a job, limit your overtime drive plan fittness program, play some game they will keep you healthy and strong

  You can only drive so much.

  The more rest you have can plan your route better for higher income.

  Get a relief, or be a relief. Less stress.

  All thanks to khoon's blog and also poolman keep emphasizing this in other threads.

  Drive shorter hours so that you can last longer . Otherwise all your relatives will come and visit you unexpectedly. Then lost of income and fell stress.

  thanks all for comments/advice. Actually my problem is I'm too relaxed cos I had an injury to shoulder 1 yr plus ago. It took 10 months to recover during that time throw a lot of rental and drive nightshift 5pm to 12pm. in between go home see kids and hv dinner sometimes. Rain? go home.. siam AP siam this siam that.. I must be lowest income earner among TDs. Now recovered about half year and still in relax mode. time to look for ways to drive longer hours cos savings running low... maybe install video to keep myself longer in vehicle and not go home..
