Fmcsa in 2015

had a snowstorm coming into amarillo last year

at the truckstop, everyone was high-tailing it out of dodge before the storm

the eloggers were stuck there and couldnt leave, they were being safe

 

We Were told to log an average of 60 mph with paper logs. E logs average a lot better than 60 giving more time to drive. I made nearly $400 of black Friday money yesterday just driving down the road and back. Since the e log does everything for you. I didn't need an ink pen.

 

Good lord....some people's children. You mean you drove 70 with paper logs and only logged 60? So because your company made you log 60 you think elogs are the better money maker?

 

It is for me. I'm kinda different than most drivers. I think it's better to get less miles and more money than more miles and less money.

 

How does that work? If you're told to average 60, you stop driving at 600 or 660 miles? Even if you're doing 75 or 85 in TX?
Elogs suck... period! It takes money out of our pockets.

 

Too many just don't understand. This horse pucky has ZERO to do with safety. It is all about big government controlling every aspect of the citizens life. Liberal big government philosophy. May be relief coming in Nov 2016 if American voters can manage to extract their heads from their donkey.

 

Just curious, but say an O/O with 1 truck, which happens to be a 1985 Peterbilt, is told has to get elogs, how would he go about doing that? How much would this cost him?
