Practical vs Short Miles实际里程短队

Filed Under (文章属于( Trucking - Industry货运-工业 )

Just a quick note to remind everyone what a short mile and a practical mile is.只是快速照会,提醒大家什么是短期英里和实际英里的。 A short mile is what most companies pay and is an almost impossible route for a truck to drive.  Drivers drive practical miles and truck companies and brokers pay short miles.简短英里,是大多数公司的薪酬,是一个卡车驾驶路线几乎是不可能的。驱动器的实际里程和卡车公司和经纪人支付短期英里。 Usually about a 10 percent difference.通常大约百分之十的差别。

Crete to Pay Drivers Practical Route Miles 克里特岛的支付司机的路线里程

The change to Practical Route miles will take effect at the start of Crete Carrier's fiscal year on Oct. 1. 对实用路线英里的变化将在克里特承运人财年10月1日开始生效。 Currently, the Lincoln, Neb.,-based company pays its drivers industry-standard Short Route miles. 目前,林肯,内布拉斯加州的公司支付了司机行业标准的短英里的路由。
Ostergard said the switch to Practical Route miles was made to more accurately reflect Crete Carrier's commitment to its drivers. Ostergard说到实践英里的路由交换了更准确地反映克里特承运人承担的车手。 The change will affect the 5,600 drivers who are either employed by or contract with Crete Carrier. 这一变化将影响5600谁不是由运营商或与克里特岛合约受雇司机。
“Even though paying Practical Route miles is not the standard in our industry, we made this change with the best interests of our drivers in mind,” Ostergard said. “即使付出的实用路线英里不是在我们的行业标准,我们提出这与我们的车手的最佳利益为依归的变化,”Ostergard说。 “When we say 'there are no shortcuts' at Crete Carrier, we mean it.” “当我们说'在克里特岛有运营商没有捷径',我们言出必行。”

The problem is that it's an industry standard .问题是,它是一个行业标准 It's a standard to rip-off the drivers and owner operators and it's the biggest scam the "industry" is perpetrating on us.这是一套标准,以欺骗的司机和业主运营商,它的最大的骗局“行业”是对我们犯下。 And Crete issues a press release to tell everyone they are finally doing the right thing.  It's not their fault they've been short changing their drivers for years and years, it's an industry standard , it's the industry’s fault.和克里特岛问题新闻稿,告诉大家他们终于做正确的事情。这不是他们的错,他们一直在短短数年,改变多年司机,这是一个行业标准 ,这是该行业的错。 Big companies like this make the industry standards and by the way, they make me sick to my stomach.这样的大公司,使行业标准和方式,他们使我开始反胃。

The last load I took the broker told me my trip was 850 miles, I was sitting at my laptop looking at the route program I use and I asked her if that was "short miles", she checked and it was.最后我把负载的经纪人告诉我,我的行程为850英里,我在我的笔记本电脑看坐在路线程序我使用,我问她,如果这是“,”短距离,她检查和它。 I said, "my truck only drives practical miles."我说:“我的车只驱动器的实际里程。” She adjusted her program to show practical miles and it was a 50  mile difference, imagine that?她调整自己的计划,显示实际英里,这是一个五十零英里区别,设想? A difference of $94, but it's an "industry standard".  These people want to strike for something no one can control like fuel prices?阿94美元差异,但它是一个“行业标准”。这些人想要争取的,谁也无法控制,如燃料价格? How about industry standard crap like this??? 行业标准怎么这样胡扯???

Ok…While I'm still searching out the matter regarding “Practical” miles, I STILL can't see what the difference is?!?!玉...当我还在寻找自己的事情就“实践”英里,我仍然看不到有什么不同?!?!

Ok, ok…they're “supposed” to be more than the HHG (DUH)…they're NOT hub, yet WHAT ARE THEY!?!?!确定,确定...他们是“应该”会比HHG(杜)更多...他们不是枢纽,但是,什么他们!?!?! In other words, how are “Practical” miles determined?换句话说,怎样“实践”英里确定的?

The “old way” usually results in getting 3 different miles as far as counting when you finish a load…you've got #1 DISPATCHED miles. “老办法”,通常在取得尽可能计数当你完成一个加载...你有#1英里派出3个不同英里的结果。 #2 ROUTED miles, and #3 ACTUAL miles driven. #2路由英里,#3英里的实际。 And MOST of the time the “actual” is the highest number.而当时的“实际”最是最高的数字。

Even if one were to take Mapquest for a “standard” it would be better than HHG, or the miles noted in your atlas.即使人们采取“标准”将是比HHG,或英里更好Mapquest则指出,在你的地图集。

Oh well…time will tell (I THINK?!), as the company I drive for has wet our appetite telling us in a voice mail that we're goin' to PRACTICAL MILES in the near future.噢好...时间才能告诉我们(我想?!),该公司已经湿了我说的语音邮件给我们,我们正在goin'在不久的将来实际咪我们的胃口驱动器。

Many companies however will always say the next change is to benefit employees, and only hope this will!然而,许多公司总是说,下一步的变化是有利于雇员,只希望这会! I guess we can compare the identical run with the new PRACTICAL miles figuring as all of this unfolds.我想我们可以比较实用的新的里程为所有这一切盘算相同的运行展开。

Most trucking routing programs include options for either HHG or Truck Shortest or Truck Practical.大多数货运路由程序包括任何HHG或卡车最短或卡车的切实选择。 PC Miler has come out with a Hazmat routing option.电脑米勒已经走出了核生化事故的路由选择。 Try etrucker.com to check out truck routing.尝试etrucker.com签出卡车路由。

Practical miles are closer to what you are going to actually drive.实际里程越接近你要真正驱动器。 They could also be called “quickest” in some (car) routing programs.它们也被称为“最快”在某些(汽车)路由程序。 As a general rule of thumb the difference between short and practical is about 10%.作为一般原则之间的短期和实际约10%的差距。

Using Promiles, a competitor of PC Miler, From Las Vegas, NV to Wichita, KS Practical is 1267, routing is from I-15 – 70, south on I-135 to Wichita.使用来自内华达州拉斯维加斯Promiles,米勒的个人电脑的竞争对手,在威奇托,堪萨斯州,是1267年的实际,路由是从I - 15 - 70,在I - 135南威奇托。 Using the “Truck Shortest” option is 1171, routing is south on 93 (over the dam, which you can't do), east on I-40 then to Wichita on US-54.使用“车最短”选项是1171,路由南93(在堤坝上,你不能这样做),东在I - 40然后威奇托美- 54。 Which isn'ta bad road, but it's a lot of two lane and small towns.这不是一个糟糕的道路,但它的两个车道和小城镇很多。

Hub miles or actual miles would include getting lost or going out of route to go home or driving around in circles, most companies aren't going to pay for that.枢纽英里或实际里程将包括走失走出去的路线去开车回家或在兜圈子,大多数公司都不会付出代价。

Practical is the closest to reality as we are going to get and about the only difference between Practical and actual is going to be the few miles driving in town to your pick-up or delivery.实践是最接近现实,我们会得到和对实践和实际之间唯一的区别将是在城市驾驶的皮卡或交付几英里。 Depending on the company or dispatcher even the practical miles can go from the center of town to the center of town or you can go from zip code to zip code which would even closer to reality.根据公司或调度的实际距离,甚至可以从市中心到城市中心,也可以从邮政编码到邮政编码将更加接近现实。

Dispatch miles are usually HHG or Shortest miles option in PC Miler调度英里通常HHG或最短英里的电脑米莱尔选项

Depending on you pick-up and drop-off you may not notice a big difference every single trip, but overall there is a big difference.根据你选择,落客您也许不会注意到有很大的不同每个之旅,但是总体来说是一个很大的区别。

WHAT BOTHER ME THE MOST IS THAT I HAVE TO WORK FOR FREE 10% I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW TRUCKING COMPANIES CAN GET AWAY WITH IT, IS THERE ANY LEGAL ACTION THAT TRUCKERS CAN TAKE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, IS THERE ANY LAWYER THAT CAN TAKE OUR CASE??是什么困扰着我最深的是:我要免费10%的工作,我不明白为什么卡车运输公司可以出现这种现象,有没有法律的行动,司机可采取的解决这一问题,有没有律师,可以采取我们的情况??
