So running a tow truck they have to have e logs, or is it a deal if they go past 50 miles or so from their home base
This might be interesting. Hey Bob's towing. Yes can I help. Yea I'm stuck in the ditch can you come get me.
sure right after my 10 hour break
But it's cold and I wanna get home
we understand but with the new rules we need to take a rest break after 14 hours of work. See you later, don't go anywhere ok
ELD's and pickups,

Yes, tow trucks are subject to hours of service. The bigger companies have enough work to have shifts, so for them no big deal. The little guys not so much. They are exempt from hos when responding to a police ordered tow but this interrupts their 10 hour so they technically have to start the 10 all over again.
The big city guys usually don't go far enough away to do a log but in my lical area and when I was out in New Mexico tows of several hundred miles were everyday occurrences so even our light duty drivers completed daily log books.passingthru69 Thanks this. -
