You can find it at http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/oppd/hdm/hdmtoc.htm The TI calculation is based on truck traffic only, so you can ignore the cars. BTW, if you do this type of calculation often, it's an easy one to turn into a spreadsheet template. ========== "Is it the only lesson of history that mankind is unteachable?" --Winston S.
