According to that you can only leave a van for 10 minutes! WTF? 10 minute loops?

When they were first introduced, I told my manager that there was two places on my walk where I had to leave my HCT for 20 mins due to hills, so these loops would have to be taken off my walk and put on a drivers duty. He said the 10 mins was only a "guideline". Guess what? Six years later and still no revision.
