ETA with Rest Stops Calculator

Estimate realistic arrival times for long road trips by adding planned breaks buffers and speed constraints. Set stop intervals by distance or driving hours and see a precise timeline with totals. Perfect for truckers couriers families and riders. Adjust break duration fuel range rest policy and departure time. Export a stop by stop schedule.

FAQs
The buffer increases all driving segments by the selected percentage. For example a 20% buffer turns a 5 hour drive into 6 hours before adding any breaks.
If a planned break and a fuel stop land at the same distance the durations are combined at a single stop. Notes indicate the components contributing to that stop.
When enabled driving only occurs between 06:00 and 22:00. If a leg would cross 22:00 the calculator pauses until 06:00 the next day and resumes driving.
Yes. Choose mi in the distance unit selector. Speed and all distance fields switch to the same unit so calculations remain consistent.
It enforces a mandatory rest whenever the specified number of continuous driving hours is reached. This is separate from interval based planned breaks and can stack with them.
It helps plan realistic ETAs but it does not encode specific jurisdictional regulations. Verify against your local hours of service or rest laws before relying operationally.
