I heard some guys talking about reaching a Million Miles and was wondering what the avg time from Beginner until they have driven a safe Million Miles..I know all companies can't giving 3000+ miles a week, every week plus there has to be some down time figured in there somewhere...

I would say 9 years. I'm not even close so I'm really not qualified to be answering this.

But in my first year I did about 110k (rounded). So with that in mind I think 9 years.

Between Nine and 10 years would be close. 9,000 miles times 12 months equals 108,000 miles a year.

108,000 miles a year times 9 years, 3 months (9.25) equals 999,000 miles.
