    Hello again. I put together a little basic video on completing hours of operation forms for HotShot Drivers. It's important to keep daily reports updated throughout the work day and so I thought this may be helpful.

    I am not understanding what you are saying makes logging for a Hot Shot any different than logging anything else? Besides not having a Sleeper I log the same as when I was class 8 and am perfectly legal. After 20 years am I missing something?

    Right, that is the point there is no difference. we don't log hours in sleeper unless we have a sleeper that passes regulations. the video is intended for new drivers. I see many posts asking a lot of questions regarding log books. I have been only operating a hotshot for a few years and have had my share of inspections, this is not to say that I can compete with somebody with 20 years of experience, but I hope to help some of the new drivers out.

    Way to much information, just keep your logs to the DOT minimum, no need to share so much personal information.

    ChezzyK, I for one apperciate all your detailed videos.

    Been driving pickup and flat bed truck the last five years for a company here in Houston but now am in the planning stages to get under my own authority and pull a trailer, within a couple months here, like you are doing.

    So again, I really apperciate all your videos, they are a big help. thanks.
