The plain-words read of this example
The route needs 9.79 h against a 10.00 h shift: 3.54 h driving and 5.00 h at 120 stops. It fits, with room for up to 125 stops. Over 5 days that is 48.96 h, 8.96 h past 40 and $322.50 of overtime pay at time and a half or your rate. The vehicle is not over 10,000 lb, so FMCSA hours-of-service limits don't apply.
