logbook question

395.8 Interpretations Question 1: How should a change of duty status for a short period of time be shown on the driver’s record of duty status?
Guidance: Short periods of time (less than 15 minutes) may be identified by drawing a line from the appropriate on-duty (not driving) or driving line to the remarks section and entering the amount of time, such as “6 minutes,” and the geographic location of the duty status change.

 

My company has us put it in line 4 otherwise we don't get paid back for the scale ticket.

 

so you lose 15 minutes of drive time?

 

log whatever your company wants you to log, what do they say ??

If your an O/O don't log anything.

yes DOT can match them up if they want, don't show them the scale ticket..

 

Line 4 has nothing to do with drive time, last I checked.

 

exactly, it takes up on-duty, not driving (14hr/70hr) time

 

you another one of them outlaws!!!

 

sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssshhh, don't tell anybody..

 

only way i see the 15 minutes eating into the 11 hour drive time is if you logged more than 3 hours on-duty time.
