Is there a "BUFFER" to get to the next truck stop when the driving as no more hours ?

I like to drive my full 11 hours, then click the “buffer” button. The handy buffer button allows me to begin the complex 2 hour process of finding a truck stop. If need you can even extend the buffer period longer! What’s most important is that you find comfortable safe haven at the Loves of your choice.

 

If we keep doing the right thing shippers and receivers will have to change.

You do have the right to get to a safe haven, however most of the responses are correct law enforcement is going to tell you to plane better.

 

“Safe haven” lol

 

I used it to get to a spot after getting boned at the border for 3 hours.

 

Sounds kinky.

 

That is factually incorrect. You do not have the right to travel to a safe haven. What you have is a responsibility to get to a safe haven within your legal hours of service.

 

Starting to feel like a broken record today....
Nothing in the HOS regs about safe haven. That term is reserved for hazmat loads.
There are only a very few exceptions that allow one to go over 11/14 and poor planning is not one of them.

 

you should be averaging 8.75 a day anyways. if you are driving 11 hours everyday you are doing it wrong.

 

I once started a thread about this. Running straight 11 hour segments back to back and resetting was said to be more profitable. 11 vs 8.5 daily driving hours
