You are correct. You won't. Flip side is they won't even talk to you when things get sideways. Then it's back to the brokers offering 1.25 on what six months ago was paying 3.40

I seen the same lately.......lots of trucks on off ramps and whatnot. The first thing I thought of was, "wow.....there was a lot of folks running illegal."

 

Thanks FW for clearing it up, I was interpreting it wrong.

 

I guess I did too TennMan.

 

Once the smart ones learn how to run an elog then they won't be running out of hours as fast as the rest of the guys. However, elogs will be a problem for the majority though because the majority of drivers can't drive & chew bubble gum at the same time. I also don't feel sorry for the dummies that waited till the last minute to get them & are going to struggle with them. Should've started learning elogs a long time ago when the rule was passed.

 

The big fleets are already up to speed.... the white Volvo crowd who cares.

 

Drivers are going to have to learn how to adjust where they may park based on events through the day...these drivers are going to find out driving 10-11hrs every day wont be feasible..

 

Luckily I started out on e-logs so I'm not overly worried. I haven't found them to be all that detrimental but then again I've never run 2 logs before so.....
