printing logs.

You need to have the ability to print or fax upon request. We use Qualcomm, so I can just fax it to whoever upon request.

 

I run Canada and the US, as far as I know you have to have signed 14 days of Canada, and 7 for the US Printed out ahead of time. So I sign and print each day.

 

I think you're right, but I keep printing them since it's not a big deal. I also recall there no longer being a requirement to sign them in ink (versus an electronic signature applied in a logbook app). I still do that too. I'll be the one getting inspected by Officer Fife who didn't get the memo.

I keep them in a stack in my office at home. When I get ready to leave, I take the ones older than 7 days and put them in my stack and that's my carrier file. 7 days or less go back in my briefcase.

 

they changed the guidance in july, if you have the ability to digitally sign, .http://fmcsa.federalregisterwatch.com/a/2014/July-10/2014-15951/1

 

no, that's not correct. we aren't talking anything about qualcomm here

 

I print them to have a paper record for the irs per diem deduction in case the laptop goes nuts, and besides I have to send in to the company I am leased with


and for officer fife I simply open the laptop , go to the saved link and let him read the memo

 

It wasn't spspecified what kind of elog. I was just saying what I know.
