What's your thoughts on new possible service hours

It allows drivers to feel like they're able to accomplish more while being exploited by their employers and customers. Meanwhile, people don't want to get into trucking because it's exempt from laws regarding pay and breaks that other jobs have to follow.

 

So your 30 min break can be on duty not driving (pointless cause everyone already fudges this). And you can stop 30 min to 3 hours and pause your 14 (might be nice for rush hour). Allows 7/3 splits as well.

 

If you ain't cheating. You ain't trying.

 

Suits me - 2 hour nap, wait for traffic or a wreck to clear, roll on.

 

Rush hour and just needing a couple hours zzzz’s

I for one am pleased with the proposal. It helps me do the job I signed up for more efficiently.

 

Until the 70 hour rule is changed, it's still going to suck. Shutting down early so you can start driving when you recap at midnight is asinine.

 

What people are you referring to, my opinion is too many are getting into it just because it is an easy way to make a living.

The new rule could be better, but with the 30 minute to 3hour break that stops the clock, will make 100% better as far as safety. At least a guy can legally take a much needed nap or just break when he has to instead of having yo pay for it.

 

If you have to cheat to make a decent living in this industry your doing something wrong.

 

More ****** confusion, just go back the 1962 version, simple and easy to understand.
