Default How long before I can drive over concrete?

Evening All,

We have just had the drive paved, and there is a small patch that was
concreted at the mouth of the drive. It's about 12" wide and about 2" to
3" deep. This was concreted yesterday morning.

Can I run the car over it tonight?

cheers

Mike


How wide are your tyres? How far apart are they? Will you 'hit' this foot
wide concrete?
It's two-three inches deep- but how long is it?

It's not a bad idea to leave concrete to 'cure' - harden by internal
chemical reaction- for as long as possible' When I had a water pipe trench
work done- I was advise to leave it for three days before parking the car
over it.
