    If you have off duty driving as an option it won't put you on duty. Some carriers don't give you that option I hear.

    It does not fit under the guidance. Short trips to and from lodgings, meals, etc.

    Not advancing towards your next load while on break.

    Although I admire your approach, I’m pretty sure you guys are gonna get popped for that. Otherwise everyone would be doing it.

    Myself, if I could I might. But mine is fool proof. Qualcomm.

    In an audit it will stick out like a sore thumb. Going to be unexplained mileage, and data gaps. Sounds like a good way to get an unsatisfactory ratings and a visit from the Feds.
