Log Books? (City and Highway combined)

what i do midnight is log on line 4 while in the same city flagging my fuel stops and pre/post trips. then log as you would if you were otr while out on your longer trips. its worked for me. hope this helps ya driver.

 

choctawblood09 is pretty correct in the response. I just want to explain why you need to fill out a log sheet when you are working local. When OTR you must have the prior 7 days worth of log sheets so you don't want to get put OOS over something so minor in your situation. It's just easiest to do it that way since you have the OTR mix in there.

If you possibly might go into Canada they require the previous 14 days worth of logs!

 

correct line 4 is on-duty not driving. another thing to remember is if you use a time clock and your logs, ya may want to make sure they match up time wise. if your co. gets audited ya might have a problem. been there,done that,and got the tee-shirt.

 

Yes line 4 is (on duty time) Usually it is quoted to the side on the log grid.

Well I have a copy of the MTO regulations, and I believe we are somewhat similar; however we do have different HOS regulations. Yes you will need to keep 14 days worth of logs for Canada so therefore back to that's why you fill it out on a log sheet. I would ask your log auditor to make sure we are correct as Canada is different. Now I know you will need the previous 7 days for USA.
