Ready, Set,,,,Here I go.....

I live Near Howard City and I will check into those suggestions you made, thanks

 

I like the Big Road App better than paper.

 

I did use the word "control" and I will try and make my point more clear. I mean "control" in the respect of controlling a driver in a way as to cause him/her to focus on his logging device more than he/she would if they were using paper, or an app, which is what I prefer.

As for my statement on the roads being unsafe, I state that from experience. Here is what I mean; When I use my phone app. to do my logs, I "do and than log", when I used Elogs, I have to "log than do". I don't remember having too many problems when I used Quailcomm but this new Elog device I am using causes me to pay attention to it more, meaning; if I use the GPS and an HOS dialogue box pops up, it kills my GPS I have to hit two tabs in order to get my GPS back. Now this is just one example but there are more and the more times I have to mess with that ELog device while going down the road, is more time I have to take my eyes off the road. That is just the GPS part of the device. As far as logs go; my unit looses connection with the VLU (vehicle location unit) at times while going down the road. When it regains connection, it has to reload all my log data, all while going down the road. The bottom line here is that ELogs cause more attention to them than paper or an App. That attention a driver pays, is what causes me to make my statement about being more unsafe. Every time that stupid thing peeps, can't turn off all sound, it causes you to look at it. Every time a dialogue box pops up, it causes you to look at it. My paper sitting over in the pass seat doesn't do anything to me, my App either. Now for the record, NOT ALL HUMAN's ARE ALIKE.

 

Anyone got an idea of how to move my truck 300 miles?
