Wanna know bro/sis can provide the info.

 

What is the furthest distance your drove in one leg ( ONLY driver ), for petrol refilling , toilet and meal break, that's it. Napping no count.

 

The total km continuously and the total time taken.

Hmm.. so far my record is from Woodlands to Klang.. no breaks of any kind. Continuous drive all the way there. Petrol was full tank so no issue then.

Ya, I think 1000km is somehow tiring, but the distance cover in 1 leg is considered long!!! Kudos to you bro!

1000km for a super Highway is quite alright I assumed.

I have covered Singapore to Kuala Terengganu in 1 day, can't remember the distance but it took us around 8 hours. The most siong drive was from Las Vegas to Grand Canyon, South Rim, and back on the same day, about 900 km, straight road all the way and this made it extremely painful although the scenery at Grand Canyon was quite unforgettable. Driving on Malaysian trunk roads is far more interesting than NSHW, less sleep inducing and it offers the occasional adrenaline rush when high speed overtaking is required.

10 to 12 hours should be ok.

Night driving even better. NS highway. Keep you alert.

Like looking at computer screen. Playing need for speed.

from a small city (160km from Sydney) into Sydney, then continued to Melbourne..... by the time reached Melbourned passed midnight, dead tired, slept in the car for 5 hours until the sun shone into my eyes and woke me up in a deserted supermart carpark around 9am (total distance 1133km, didnt go fast, about 15 hours)

 

from London to Lake district with detours to Old Traford in Machester......... 600km+

 

usually will take at least a pee break every 3 hours or so...........

Done that too - the drive to Terengganu...the killer was that super straight trunk road to reach the coastal highway - as boring to drive as watching the paint dry...

Not quote super highway. Particularly CA highways close to OR borders are not really so great, and varying 50-80mph speed limits with a lot of cops on the road and in the sky + already kenna US$190 ticket and no traffic school exemption allowed just before the trip sibei sian. Though people generally don't drive dangerously.

 

Real super highway is Autobahn worshipped by motorists all over the world, no speed limits. :)

No speed limit from here on road sign:
