New Rules Starting Monday

Super lost now

 

Here we go again. There's tons of threads already on this.

 

Curious as to what is going to be considered the beginning date for enforcement of the 34 hr restart. What will happen to the drivers that are say 33 hours into a restart Sunday 23:59.

 

It amazes me sometimes. This info. has only been out there in the public domain now for how long?

Yet...

 

and your point is?

 

thanx guys looks like ill be squeezing in my breaks right around the 3 hour mark i like my 11 hr days to much

 

One part that I think is going to be a bit tricky. If you take a restart one weekend, say starting at 7 p.m. Saturday until 5 a.m. Monday. Then, the following weekend your 34 must start at 7 p.m. Saturday or later. You would not be allowed to take your second 34 from 8 p.m. Friday until 6 a.m. Sunday. That's the 168 hour rule in a nutshell.

Better learn how to run recap hours if you don't know already.

I hate running recap. It always seemed to screw me on miles. What do the guys do that have 10-11.75 each taken away from the 70?
