Yes. This is logically clean and unambiguous now.
So this "eCFR" is the official, chiseled in stone, book of federal codes, also including HOS...? If so, great!
I saved it for future reference. Thank you.

Well. Let's conclude this short, yet as I hope, a useful informative thread by saying that as I type this, the Keep Truckin elog had no objections and my clock for 11 driving and 14 shift hour clocks were reset successfully. I am ready to resume the trip.
Cabinover101 Thanks this. -
You can’t edit PC time to anything other than on duty driving anyway. There isn’t a way to edit drive time in any manner. Just keep doing what you’re doing. I’m off duty right now but later tonight when I go in the bunk for good I’ll switch my status.

Technically, if you're under a load, you're not allowed PC. The DOT cop *could* find you in violation.
-
You are allowed to PC when you are under load.
I will PC when under load because nowhere it says that I can't. -
You CAN be off duty resting in the sleeper birth. -
-
Even if I did, nobody saw me. Neither did you.
As far as documenting it...tell me more about it! I don't have a clue what you are saying. -
Any entry in your log book is on duty time. Even if you wait until after 10 hr break still illegal cause not true and/or current.
If nobody saw you why do you do it the way you doTallJoe Thanks this. -

Question 5: Do telephone calls to or from the motor carrier that momentarily interrupt a driver’s rest period constitute a change of the driver’s duty status?
Guidance: Telephone calls of this type do not prevent the driver from obtaining adequate rest. Therefore, the FHWA does not consider these brief telephone calls to be a break in the driver’s off duty status.TallJoe Thanks this.
