It is good to know you are as geographically challenged, along with
your other challenges.
New York to Los Angels is 2,778 miles, and expedia lists it as 39
hours 55 minutes.
Twenty-four hours multiplied by 65 mph is 1560 statute miles, or
roughly 56% of the cross-country total distance.
So in round numbers, driving that distance means you will be
averaging 70 miles per hour.
See above.
Somewhere in there, you have to eat, take restroom breaks, fuel the
vehicle, and deal with traffic.
Yes, so? Add an hour.
Most people on a long trip can average no more than 60 mph, for
stops, not including sleep.
That takes the drive time up to over 46 hours.
So you only need to sleep for 2 hours out of the 48 hours to drive
across the country. What a man!
All you need is more than one driver in the car. People do this all
the time.
Why don't you take that trip sometime?
Driving long distances is boring.
You're an idiot.
Oh, never mind - you don't drive.
Where I live, we have mass transportation that makes driving
unnecessary.
What, you have a shuttle bus to the bathroom?
