yes team drivers have to abide to the same rules as single drivers, down to the hours driving and sleeper berth. there are a lot of drivers that do not like this rule, teams before the hours of service change were able to drive 5 on and 5 off. have talked to some coast to coast teams lately and they like the 11 hours of driving at one time, after talking to them and the benifts they have changed my mind on the rule.

I don't think so if you go to the site it seems to me they are saying they work 12 hour shifts that may include a meal break but the driver in the video doesn't elaborates on it

thanks for the info my nephew and I are going to start to team drive as soon as I get my cdl wasn't sure of the rules for teams

Can I watch this video or do I need to be a driver. I will search it, but I would say maybe they start their 12 hour clock instead of 14 hour clock.
So if they start # 8:00 am they say 12 hours later my co-driver will take over, why??? I don't know. But I would like to watch the video -

.
I will try right now -
I can't find it to view it, I know they used to allow visitors to see it, but I think they stopped. Link me if you can and I will watch and learn
