    I have been driving for about two years now and it has been all oil field. I was told that the of duty well site was removed and they were trying to remove the 24 hour restart and make it 34 hours like everyone else. Now I know when I mentioned ten hours off between working I was told oil field is exempt and we stayed out till the "job is done" when one pusher mentioned we are considered short haul, I asked what about the max 12 off 10 with one 24 hour restart every seven days, he didn't have a response other than oil field exemption. Someone else brought up the elog issue and once again, you guessed it. So ate there any drivers here with a bit more time under the wheel that can clear this stuff up?

    14 on 10 off 24 reset. off duty on well site split only apply's to very few oil field drivers. such as pump truck drivers or hot oilers.

    still log off duty any chance you get doesn't extend your 14 but helps you on your 70
