The user is behind their delivery schedule due to unexpected traffic

Scenario: A short-haul truck driver has a phone app that monitors his route, schedule, fuel & deliveries. He has 6 more deliveries before stopping for fuel and lunch. Due to unexpected traffic, he’s behind schedule. He can choose to stay on his planned route for a few more stops, but risk running low on fuel and missing lunch, or he can get fuel and lunch now and finish the deliveries later.

Challenge: Write a push notification alerting him of this dilemma and options.

Headline: 30 characters max

Body: 45 characters max

Button(s): 25 characters max

This challenge is quite fun for me, though I did find the push notification brief kind of confusing since they mention it needs button. I opted for the push notification and in-app pop up. Copy wise I try not to sound too negative on risking fuel running low, so I figured informing the how far they can go with the current fuel might be better, the driver can decide for themselves. I think I went past the character limit for buttons, but I personally want to encourage them to refuel too, hope this is okay.

UI-wise I didn’t do much, I use the same background as the fire alert GPS challenge and just slap the message box on top of it.

Thank you very much in advance!
