But where is the conflicting detail?

It’s just very hard to find a compromise or “agree to disagree” when the topic of debate is something like should LGBT people be allowed to exist. The days are long past where the right/left divide was all about economic policy – the divide lies along basic human values at this point. You’re going to be hard pressed to find people who can engage with you calmly when you’re defending a party whose primary concerns right now are stripping away civil rights from their least favorite human beings before all else.

It depends on the distance, or how it was expressed. Less than 12 hours, or exact times, probably means just the actual driving time before any stops. Really long spans of time, or when someone says something fuzzy like “a half-day drive,” you can probably assume are accounting for a break or two.

To answer your specific question, if someone said “a 10 hour drive” to me, I would assume they meant 10 actual road hours, before breaks. I would anticipate their actual arrival in an 11 to 12 hour time frame.
