I have a quick question. normally I run local under 100 mile radius and under 60 hours a week.... this past week in 5 days I have 57 hours and my boss made me work 9 hours Saturday and told me to use a log book to log Saturday. im wondering if I use a log book for Saturday work do I have to fill out a log book for the next few days or can I just use a log book for a single day and go back to a daily log sheet?

when i worked local. we only logged days over 12 hours. which very rarely happened. never worked over 60 hours.
that was dirt hauling. back in them days. the air radius was 150 miles. least, that's what the one and only scale check i had said.
don't know your operation though. -
I would ask him why he told you to do that. Because normally in a 100 air mile radius Dot does not require you to keep logs. When you haul Agg. Worst case scenario if his explanation does not make sense call a scale house in your area and ask them how to be compliant and record the date time and officer you spoke to
You dont have to give them your name or your company just ask them the question upfront and if they want personal info hang up. I don't support outlaw trucking but anyone in a seat understands the inflexibility of the industry as a whole. The good news is no matter what your doing, all of this on Paper. That being said you can always color inside the lines of your coloring book! Good Luck! -

Sure you can use a log sheet for a single day but you have to record your previous 7 days.
If he runs 7 days a week then forget this part.

However, you are still subject to the HOS limitations, 11, 14 and 60/70 rules. -
