No.
We get breakdown pay.
The pay is the same per day, but it is a different category for the bean counters.
And there is yet another for shutting down due to the weather.
how much is your layover pay?

A good DM will get you the pay without your asking, otherwise you have to request it.
(Should that have been you're asking'? Someone set me straight so I can keep it right and correct.)
(I love a good grammar and spelling cop, just so I can learn something new.)

Our layover pay is the motel cost and $45 for meals.
If we are stranded on the highway it's hourly up to 14 w OT after 10 and if we break down out of town its motel, meal money and 8 hours at $33.30.
Usually we are towed back home but a couple yrs ago I spun a bearing on a Friday and waited till Tuesday for a lift home while they replaced motor under warranty. -

If you are in the hotel you are capped at 8 but if it's like say a storm delay you may get a full 14 hours since you'd be on duty not knowing when you may be moving. We try not to abuse it since like most it is not a set rate if they offer any at all.kratogen Thanks this. -
