You wouldn't log one mile would you?

Interpretation for 395.8: Driver's record of duty status.

 

The way my e-logs worked, if I drove (or was in any other duty status) for less than 5 minutes, it would revert to the previous status.

So, if I spent, say, 8 minutes fueling the reefer, then drove for 2 minutes, then went "Off Duty" while waiting to enter, the e-log would show me "Off Duty" from the time I started driving 2 minutes previously.

 

your kidding right,this is a trick question..........right

 

Has to be......

 

To my understanding anything under 7 minutes does not have to be logged(unless fueling , inspecting, etc), In your situation I would log 15min fuel, 15 min drop & hook(PTI).

 

A friend of mine, moved his truck to the spot in front of him and they sent a message that he had to restart the 10 hour break. It depends on the company.

 

Its up to the company how you log it. We log it as on-duty none driving because of the time it takes to drive and fuel. which is less than 15 mins. for me.

 

If I pulled my truck forward, to avoid backing out in the morning, and my company told me to restart my 10 hour break, I would immediately be job hunting for somewhere less silly.

 

I would show 15 minutes fueling and continue on line 4 with the check in/drop/hook/pti, maybe 30 more minutes.
Just flag the short move after fueling. They'll see the same town and not say a word. That's how it happened.

Angle them flag lines good!
