So we seem to be juggling both "IFTA" threads which I feel is crucial in this business.Earlier, we argued about using computer generated software to calculate route and miles.
Chris you are right about not using any software to calculate miles but the question is, which software not to use?We all know PC MILER/HHG or "wherever the crow flies"(aka straight line miles) is what is used in this industry to pay drivers.
I ran from griffin, Georgia to Dallas and then back to Georgia.I used my Odometer in calculating the amount of miles I ran through each state.As G man adviced, I also used the microsoft streets and trips in making comparisons.If most of you don't know, Streets and trips is close to hub miles unlike pc miler or Randy McNally mile marker.In comparing both, I had a +/-2 in difference when comparing the ODO and my street and trips.So you know what that means?Streets and trips will be my friend.The actual physical route that I run will be routed on streets and trips, as long as I don't make any U turns , get lost or take a route other than what I have on streets and trips.
