    So what if it has been longer than that which is what "at least " could infer? I really don't care at this job, I haven't had to use a reset in many months.

    I thought it was 0100, but did not want to be wrong on the short side and was in the middle of the post and not wanting to double check. Guilty.

    I used the time as a reference which I assume the driver would know it was their logbook time, but good to bring this out again.

    You have to make the choice on the log the day it happens. You start with a fresh 70 and then breakdown, you cannot redo logs.

    Lol snowy you're such an outlaw! :biggrin_25514: I still think running off the recap is going to be the only viable option to avoid screwing my log book up completely and its still going to get screwed up...I shudder to think of what my old mans log is going to look like:biggrin_25521:

    Pretty much my thoughts.

    I have friends who have only been driving since the restart and have no clue about recap.

    ROFL, wanna bet?

    We are still on paper logs, and we currently do a recap, actually doing a recap is quite simple.
