    Adverse Weather extends your drive time but not your duty time.
    Big Day extends duty time but not drive time.

    This past weekend in the Virginia nightmare we used both on the same day so we could get home.

    Thanks in Canada adverse allows me to extend driving 2 hours so from 13 to 15 i still max my combined driving and on duty at 16hrs i get that part its the logging into an edriver logs system that has no option for adverse conditions that is my concern.

    What my drivers can do is switch to paper log if they run into technical problems such as no servicyor if the relay breaks, etc. It happens.
