8/2 split scenario - help please

You'll be out of hours on your 14 at 10:30 am.

The 8 hours in the berth stopped the clock. The 4 hours in the berth satisfied the rest of the split requirement but did not stop the clock and effectively moved the start of the 14 hour window to 8:30 PM

 

Same answer as above basically.

8 hours in the berth stops the clock, anything less doesn't.

So after the 02:30 to 06:30 (or any period of at least 2 hours off duty) the calculation of the 14 moves to a starting point where the last 8 hour or longer period in the berth ended.

So it ended at 20:40 which means the 14 is up at 10:40.

 

Once you start a 14.

Tick tock tick tock. At some point you will stop on the 14th hour.

It is not good to have multi stop loads, they are a parasite that munches on your ability to run miles. Stopping is to lose time and money.

 

Just a point of contention here, but taking anything more than 2 hours to get the rest of your times back is a waste. Since the clock doesn't stop, going over 2 hours actually cuts into the drive time he's gonna be receiving.

 

Multi stop loads are not a parasite. They usually pay better so I prefer them. The trick is figure out how to master your time.

Im sorry I can' answer either of your scenarios. I don' understand them, tmi for me. (I doubt im alone there)
Try asking this way. After a 10 hour break. Starting with a fresh 14.
Drive x hours.
Stop for x time/ (off or on duty doesn't matter.
Drive for x hours.
Sleeper birth for x hours
Don' need all the times and other stuff. Just need to no drove for how long. Stopped for how long. Sleeper for how long.

 

Always was a subject for debate.Under old rules drivers always believed you needed a 8 hr break after splitting. I once split log for 3 weeks straight. Never heard from safety.I showed log book to another driver to prove point. I honestly don’t see any benefit to it now with the 14 hr rule. What am I missing here?Is it possible to gain 2 hrs on the 14 by taking an 8 in bunk?A simple basic example mane anyone?
