E-Logs - the good, the bad & the ugly

Please make it so the driver can forge the logs this is how we make money. I don't know what my last company used but my dispatcher was able to fix the logs so I could work as much as I wanted which made my checks nice it would be nice if the driver could do it themselves

 

There are already too many threads on e-logs. Use
the forum search

 

wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too many

 

Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to manyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy...

 

You should know the rules by now. The powers that be shouldn't hassle us with excessive detail. Just tell us when to sleep and when to wake up so we don't have any drivers sleeping while they're rolling. The rest is really none of their business.

 

elogs should be at the discretion of the driver, because he alone knows when he is tired and he alone knows when he is rested

a dispatcher, a shipper, a receiver, the trucking company, DOT no one knows when the driver is tired or rested but the driver

and if he is deemed unable to make that determination, then he should not be driving a truck

is that simple enough?

 

you dont see the "powers that be" telling you when to sleep as "excessive detail"?

 

An e-log that would help is ''NOT'' stealing from our 14 Hour Clock..We need to have something in place for breakdown time,loading time,unloading time,detours on the road,traffic 5 hour jams,winter storms and the such...This SHOULD NOT count towards the 14 hour rule.The truckers are taking a beating for all of this ''DEAD TIME''..We are the only ones that suffer from this dead time.
