    So if I cheat on Elogs and nobody looks at it did I cheat ? Does the truck shut off I drive over 11 hrs ?

    It seems to me all the fussing I over EORB is that it lets everyone slack off on doing their job .... Safety don't have do anything unless the machine tells them to drivers do have to do anything unless the box beeps and even dot don't have to add or read just look at the box !

    It just seem like more dumbing down the industry to let more simple minded Lazy trash into the new trash can of America !!
    Lit sure is hard watch them destroy a once honorable profession so the unemployable trash can have a job and a place to live !!

    just a shame that the fools keep on believing it is to make the world a safer place ! Safety my butt boys like everything else in the world just follow the money EORB or sleep apthnea just follow the money !!

    I think they need to make every truck specked like yellow freight because they are more efficient than my big old truck and the world would be a better place for everyone so how could we be against that !!

    Again you have been drinking the Kool-Aid and believe all the Lies and B/S....Never once was it about SAFTEY since De-Regulation...The DOT,FMCSA and the Politicians moved into the private sector to CASH IN MILLIONS from STUPID TRUCK DRIVERS with no set of balls...Since then they have brainwashed and dumbed down many many Drivers....All for the sake of ''Saftey''...This is comical,to say the least.

    Once again we have everyone using the all mighty ''Saftey'' word to justify and rationalize.This ''saftey'' word is getting better than using the ''child'' and ''children'' word...Toss the ''child'' word around and watch people start moving some LAWS and REGS...That is a great word to justify more LIES and B/S...

    I myself have ''proven'' every single ''theory'' of thier's WRONG...I am one of the few that will at least tell you the truth...I do it MY WAY....Got it..?...I have refused to CHANGE something in my EXPERTISE that is not broken...I have no plans to change what has made me Millions....

    At very least i am honest with everyone on how i operate my truck....Like it or Not...I am still here some 30 years later and run a 95% ''safe'' operation...I have over 3 Million Safe miles since a few scapes in my forst couple months....

    If the word OUTLAW,RENEGADE and the rest of there fancy names is a bad thing..?...Then i guess i am BAD....But keep in mind..I am one of the best and i will NEVER WORK cheap like many of the dumbed down E-Loggers with there E-Babysitters....
