I'm not that worried about it or expecting to get chewed out by safety really, it's that I like to learn how these things work and it's just annoying to see that Violation flag for a dumb half minute.
Also, I think someone guessed right, it's a Rand McNally.

I think technically that is for truly unexpected hazards that delay you. I have used this once for weather related conditions, but mostly for the related car crashes around Ann Arbor. Oddly enough where I'm going next again to Costco in Belleville, MI. When I used it before, there was an absurd amount of accidents from tailgaters and traffic from rubberneckers.fargonaz and Rattlesnake Jake Thank this.

Found it in "Adverse Driving Conditions" from FMCSA
“If unexpected adverse driving conditions slow you down, you may drive up to 2 extra hours to complete what could have been driven in normal conditions. This means you could drive for up to 13 hours, which is 2 hours more than allowed under normal conditions. Adverse driving conditions mean things that you did not know about when you started your run, like snow, fog, or a shut-down of traffic due to a crash. Adverse driving conditions do not include situations that you should have known about, such as congested traffic during typical “rush hour” periods.
Even though you may drive 2 extra hours under this exception, you must not drive after the 14th consecutive hour after coming on duty, and you must comply with the minimum 30-minute rest break provisions.”misterG Thanks this. -
More than true lol. Just found it I posted it a second ago. Thanks!

Which clock did you go over on? Were you driving after 14, or were you simply on-duty still after 14? Or did you drive more than 11 hours total?
I ask as if you were simply on duty after the 14, that is legal and no violation. -
But who determines a truly unexpected situation I guess would be the point... It seems kind of bland in the actual exception..

I know what you mean there.

I think we lost sight of the original question: he hit certify accidentally before he could finish his logs for the day. It sounded like he wanted to un-certify so he could finish filling in his log correctly.
