That's one angle. Another angle is like where I am, I've burned through 70 hours in 6 days quite often, just to make the appointments in opposite coasts. Do this and you're more or less forced to take a reset.
But if you're doing regional, this scenario is never going to happen.

While the DOT requires you to be relieve of all responsibility in order to take a reset (34). In reality the trucking company will blame you for anything that happens to their truck or it's assets.
If something happens to a truck or load you best believe no one in the front office will accept responsibility in any form and the driver is always handy to blame.Need4Speed and driverdriver Thank this. -

But if I'm in this stitsuation with a zero coming but 10' s an 11's for the next three or four days I'll do a 24 instead of a 34, well if there's good paying loads 9n the board that is. Lol -

Different folks, different situations.jethro712 and driverdriver Thank this. -
I drive max hours, always deliver early, and on Fridays do a reset by Monday’s delivery. I get more miles this way than running recap. I enjoy my resets too.

I basically work only 2 states and can easy run all my hours out in 5 to 6 days. I just choose not to.
