Driving distance calculator???

[AlexCR]

Hello everybody!

Call me crazy but I swear I saw somewhere on the net a driving distance calculator! (Y'know, it gives different time and distance estimates by bus/car/boat, etc) Anybody else seen it, I googled it a while ago, but can't seem to find it.

www.intercot.com has travel times on many of their resort write-ups. But I don't recall ever seeing an actual calculator.

Is this it?(you have to pull down a little to actually use it)
Also check the links page at the top. I thought I remember seeing what you are describing from at trip planner like mapquest or map something or another.

If you want to calculate it yourself the formula is

A=BXC (USING A COMPUTER IT WOULD BE A=B*C)

A = Distance
B = Speed
C = Time
______

You travel 2 hours at 70 MPH is A = 70*2 or 140 miles traveled.
__________

To get your average MPH it will be A/C = B

140 miles travelled in two hours would be 140/2 = 70
____________

Converting minutes to decimals would be each minute = .016667 IE 3 minutes would be .05001, 30 minutes would be .5

Travelling one hour and 10 minutes would be 1.6667
___________

How long to travel 140 miles at 70 MPH is A/B =C or 140/70 = 2

I've alwats used http://www.maps.yahoo.com for mileage and estimated drivetime calculations.
