    I want to see your proof of this.

    Wow! Elogs are turning shysters into law abiding citizens.

    ^thats right

    People who break laws don't care what the law says; they aren't following it anyway.

    I never said a sticker makes it compliant. If you put a sticker on that truck you #### well better be conpliant unless you've got money to burn.

    I think it's funny the one wants to raise HOS to 16 hours. Why do we need to work longer? 70s enough

    Changing the 14 to 16 doesn't affect how hours you can work just the window that work in. I personally think there shouldn't be a window, just have 11 hours you can drive each day how ever you see fit to drive them.
     
    PoleCrusher and mitmaks Thank this.

    You should be able to actually work 14 hours total. You should be able to drive 14 if you needed to or drive 13 and unload/fuel/etc for 1 hr.

    No kidding. The eld crowd paints anyone that's against them as a red eyed madman. The vast VAST majority are guys that don't feel like sleeping in the truck after driving 8 hours because they got stuck at i dock for a while. I rarely drive more than 8 hours a day. But then I'm not paid by the mile so I like to make my money more easily.
