    Yes there is a way to know that and it’s already been proven! Second if you have a plan let’s hear it. I’m all ears.

    I'm going to rent a space for bobtail only in established rv storage place.

    To know what? The assertion was that no one in the FMCSA have ever driven or worked in the industry.. that's just ignorant

    Plan for what exactly? The HOS is what it is, the fact that the drivers are a pack of cowards and will NOT would not follow the HOS for their own protection is the issue. The are the "abused spouses" of the industrial world.. They are being abused, they have the power to NOT be abused, but they blame the people who THEY CALLED for help rather than the abuser that they LOVE! Give me a break. Every time this issue is discussed, the victims come running.

    Everyone relax, get a good nights sleep, head home fresh and rested up. Its aggravating YES! But part of the Job. Until the rules change, plan accordingly. Meanwhile complain every chance you get. It’s a legit complaint.

    So your bad planning is the fault of the rules...... It happens in any case I suppose, I plan my home time more careful than deliveries and pick's. I adjust my drive schedule over days at times.
