Short answer is that you should know how for you can drive safely and stay below that limit always. For me, that's about 12 hours, if I'm not driving the next day. If I am, then I keep it less than eight hours. If my wife trades off with me we can go sixteen hours, assuming the next day we don't drive, or about 12 if we don't.
Gotta take breaks every hour or so, so we wind up driving about 50 minutes out of every hour. Assuming a cruise speed of 55 mph this gives a distance of 400-700 miles depending on how we plan.
When I was younger (20-ish) I'd drive all day. I got smarter and safer.
