34hour restart while loaded

Driving, or total time on duty?

 

Haha, says the guy with a math equation in his signature.

 

Hey man, I can figure out anything to do with trucks and equipment thats logical. This hours of service crap is retarded. I cant bring myself to poison my brain with all the idiotic rules.

 

Total time on-duty since the latest moronic change to the HOS.

Hmmm... ya either got to figure a way to live with 'em, or eventually get shut down runnin' agin 'em!

 

I'm taking my 34 at the house as we speak and I'm under a load. Well, I didn't really need a 34, but it worked out that way.

 

That would be a total of lines 3&4.

 

Luckily I dont run long enough to to need to worry about total hours per week. Thanks for the clarification. So you would need to run super short days to keep away from the reset.

 

We never use to have a reset, you can put the miles in without it, it just takes more planning and in some instances a little more paper.

 

Any way you do it, you are limited to 70 hours in 8 days, and the provision for 168 hours between restarts limits their use to once in the same period. You can either run 11 hours with 10 hours between until you're out of hours then restart, or just keep going on shorter days. The net result is the same 70 hours in 8 days maximum.

The difference is you beat yourself to death one way, or space those days out a bit the other.
