Method used to determine an estimated waiting time to cross the border
1. Estimated time to export from the Republic of Poland

X - estimated waiting time at border crossing given in full hours.
Y - average number of vehicles cleared during the shift.
Z - the total number of vehicles situated before the a border crossing and at the border crossing.
12h - the duration of the shift.
Examples:
There are 90 vehicles on the Border Crossing in Kuźnica, while in front of the border crossing there are 20 trucks waiting; the average number of trucks cleared during the shift on this border crossing is 200; therefore, the estimated waiting time for crossing the border in this case is:
Note: The calculated waiting time for crossing the border is rounded to the full hour, so that time period shorter than 0.5h is ignored, and 0.5h or more is increased to full hour.
