    I wonder how many drivers parked Sunday night with their paper logs showing them 600 miles away from where the elog showed them to be Monday morning?

    Make it a entire trip or three that did not exist on paper logs.

    What about that accident on the highway that you did not have any control of. That was a 45 minutes delay. Seem like you can still driver over the pass when roads are still dry now.

    No he can't... Cause he knows about it (or should of reasonably known) stop giving out poor information.

    Yes he can. If you dont like my information use the block feature. Let me define the word "adverse" for you.

    adjective
    1.
    unfavorable or antagonistic in purpose or effect:
    adverse criticism.
    2.
    opposing one's interests or desire:
    adverse circumstances.
    3.
    being or acting in a contrary direction; opposed or opposing:
    adverse winds.
    4.
    opposite; confronting:


    By definition there are a number of situations on the highway that could be considered "adverse conditions", Because you bubble heads want to think inside your little boxes doesnt mean we all should. I've used adverse conditions on numerous occasions not related to weather and have never been cited or questioned.

    No he cannot.. he knew

    “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.”

    I am only posting the rule. How the driver wants to interpret it is up to them.

    Do not call me a Bubble Head, keep the post civil....

    Are you really that stupid Hot?
    It's unknown adverse conditions. Sure keep posting and ignoring the word unknown....
    Just shows how wrong you really are.
    This is from 395.2, which overrules any thing like common usage.

    §395.2 Definitions.

    Adverse driving conditions means snow, sleet, fog, other adverse weather conditions, a highway covered with snow or ice, or unusual road and traffic conditions, none of which were apparent on the basis of information known to the person dispatching the run at the time it was begun.
