Beware Michigan Drivers

Paper logs will continue to be legal after December 17. You need to carry a few pages with you to back up your eld if it fails to work.
Pre 2000 drivers can continue to use paper.

 

Yes sir you are correct I was referring to the mandate regarding the date that eld will become mandatory for most.

 

That alone will force the price of older trucks upwards

 

I didn't know that about the driver being pre 2000, i thought it was the truck that had to be pre 2000! Thanks

 

Your welcome. Yep if you have been a driver before 2000 you don't have to use an ELD or an AOBR.

Make sure you tell the DOT you read it on the internet.
Sarcasm!!!

 

I'm glad he wasn't on duty early morning last year as I hit the expressway with one contact lens bout 100 miles from an americas best. Wasn't to bad once the sun rose but before then. "Did I just see a horse...is my lane ending.. etc. As far as the crackdown in Michigan. My current doesn't travel that way much but like a previous poster said if you operating legally there's nothing to be worried about except for the occasional border line misplay.

 

They're also known for their extra ####ty roads that shake your teeth loose as you bounce down them.
