    How? Carefully and skillfully
    I don't speed
    I don't have accidents,ever
    I'm slow through every construction site
    I service my customers on time
    I keep stress low
    And I make time to have coffee and talk shop at the counter....

    And guess what? All this with my paper logs. Go figure....
     
    Oxbow, Rideandrepair, Timin770 and 3 others Thank this.

    You Can't!! About your only option is "Adverse Driving Conditions" which can add up to 2 extra hrs of drive time to your clock, but it does not extend the 14 hr day. Sometimes, You 'have' to use PC to 'Safe Haven'
