    Calculating Idol Time

    I have a worksheet that records all the GPS events for a truck in a given time period. Each time there is a status change (new location, driving started, driving stopped), also every 20 minutes, it will log the event on a spreadsheet.

    example rows look like this:

    HTML Code: 
    I want a way to calculate Idol time (time from last "driving stopped", until next "driving started"). How do I go about doing that?

    Here is a sample workbook I am working on

    Status Report over 6-21-2015 - 6-25-2015.xlsx

    any help is greatly appreciated

    Re: Calculating Idol Time

    Here is a way to do it using a "helper" column.

    The first idle period is not calculated because there is not initial "driver stopped" flag to start from.

    By the way, "idle" not "idol".
