New HOS Regulations 9-29-2020

I still can't believe that they didn't allow to stop the 14 hour clock for a 2 or 3 hour rest break. It still forces drivers to to drivers to drive tired.

 

I stand corrected. I didn't realize that you could take a 2 or 3 hour break befor the 7 hour break

 

Not only can you stop, it's illegal to keep driving tired.
Stop and get rest and (especially if there are delays that are not the drivers fault) get dispatch/broker to reschedule delivery. See, HOS isn't forcing anyone to run tired. Quite the contrary, it requires the driver to rest if he's tired. The driver is choosing to and blaming their lack of backbone to force dispatch/brokers to follow the law.

 

Sometimes a reschedule is not a possibility... Some receiver's have outrageous late fees, I have seen $500 late fees.....

 

What does that have to do with breaking the law and running tired? Yes I realize sometime crap happens. Simple fact blaming HOS for running tired is never going to get anywhere because HOS specifically doesn't allow one to run tired.

 

232 pages!!!! What a joke. It’s not that complicated. See instead of actually doing stuff they just take one thing and OVER do it, pretending to work. Boo

 

If a normal 24 hr clock dont stop, neither will any other clock. The rules are quite flexible I'd you know how to utilize them. They were flexible before these retarded changes.
