how do you log accidents....

Most drivers that I've talked to log it off duty. Yes, technically you should log it on duty.

 

All time spent at the controls operating a commercial vehicle must be logged as driving time unless using it for personal use

 

I guess it depends on how hard a paycheck that is light 3-4 hours production, will hit you later on in the week, and if you don't mind burning a $60 bill

 

I don't know, I never had an accident.

 

If a company driver, might want to check with your safety department. Most of the time if you are on the freeway stuck because of an accident, you should still be logged as driving.

 

I remember when I had the elogs, there was a function button for that. You'd enter the nearest location and that function. I believe it was on duty, not driving. If you ran out of hours at the end of the day, they would grant you a couple hours, depending how long you sat, so you wouldn't get a violation.

 

If I am in the drivers seat, ODD.
