    There is no FMCSA requirement to log toll roads. They are logged as any other road. As to your company requirement, I would believe that flagging when you entered and exited the tollroad would suffice.

    Why does your company want you to log toll roads?

    No one logs toll boths thats cazy!! Just run the road and the tickits from the boths have a time on them so say you go thur plaza A at 1020 am but your log shows you were 50 miles away well thats no good. Needs to mach up some what I hide my tickits in my truck as my company could care less about the times.

    You think it is crazy.

    Have you not noticed that many trucks pull over at the toll booths and make a notation?

    There are companies that are really anal on this.

    You don't get toll tickets, if you use a transponder, such as EZ-Pass, or I-Pass.

    I went through a toll booth in a traffic jam to get around an accident.

    The booth attendant asked me if I wanted a receipt. I said I have the IPASS. She said many trucks have them, but pull through to get a receipt for their logs.

    So do I.

    But do you think a company driver can log into their company account?

    A friend works at a company that has the IPASS and he does what I said. He noted the times when he would cross the IPASS and then if it does not match their IPASS times, they take it from his check.

    No, a company driver would not, as it is not their account.
