Most companies give a one to two mile "grace" before the elog switches statuses. You may be able to move across the street without doing anything...

 

The food where you are at now must be pretty terrible that McDonalds is the better choice lol

 

Those roller dogs get old after awhile.

 

And here goes this thread.

 

It depends on the company if you need to bobtail or can use a trailer

 

Since you asked who is correct.. Neither are. Let's take a look at the guidance for the regs from https://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/regulations/title49/section/395.8



Question 26: If a driver is permitted to use a Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) for personal reasons, how must the driving time be recorded?

Guidance:

a driver is relieved from work and all responsibility for performing work, time spent traveling from a driver’s home to his/her terminal (normal work reporting location), or from a driver’s terminal to his/her home, may be considered off-duty time. Similarly, time spent traveling short distances from a driver’s en route lodgings (such as en route terminals or motels) to restaurants in the vicinity of such lodgings may be considered off-duty time. The type of conveyance used from the terminal to the driver’s home, from the driver’s home to the terminal, or to restaurants in the vicinity of en route lodgings would not alter the situation unless the vehicle is laden. A driver may not operate a laden CMV as a personal conveyance. The driver who uses a motor carrier’s Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) for transportation home, and is subsequently called by the employing carrier and is then dispatched from home, would be on-duty from the time the driver leaves home.

Now if you read that there are only two reasons PC are allowed. First is going to/from terminal and home. Second is going to/from restaurant from lodging. Neither one are what you are doing.
That being said, I would call your safety/compliance department and see if they will allow the move. Just realize it's not legal and if something happens to will be liable.

 

Whatever you do, certainly don't walk over there. Those calories don't come cheap, it would be a real shame to burn any of them off.

 

He's going from lodging to a restaurant. just because he's not in a motel don't mean he's not lodging in his truck..after all, it's where his bed is.

He's certainly not in a tent on the grass. So I would think he's actually correct.
