Assuming he is working from a reset, then this would put him in violation here for sure. Or if he hasn't had the required 24hrs off in 14 days.
Little HOS help from my northern brethren?

I have a ? regarding the 24 hours off in previous 14 days.
@not4hire
Must the 24 hours be midnight to midnight of drivers home terminal? If a 24 hour off period consists of lines 1 and 2 and began on March 6 at 12 noon and driver starts a new 14 hour shift the next day at 1 pm, does that satisfy the rule? Part 2: would March 6 be day 1 of a new 14 day counter or would March 7 be "day 1"?
I am running recap here and will be against this rule in a few days when I re-enter Canada. -
No. Any period of 24 hours and any combination of off-duty / sleeper berth.
Yes.
March 7
Cycles
25 Subject to section 28, no motor carrier shall request, require or allow a driver to drive and no driver shall drive unless the driver has taken at least 24 consecutive hours of off-duty time in the preceding 14 days.

I left out the referenced Section 28 as it is regarding Cycle 2.gokiddogo Thanks this. -
So I had better not find myself on the road on March 21 before taking another. March 21 would be day 15 and I have worked every day.
Even more advanced planning needed in future.
Thanks. -
You caught me before my edit. The new period will start on the day you finish your 24 hours off, so March 7 in your example.gokiddogo Thanks this.

See what happens when I slack off a bit and work a bit easier every day rather than balls to the wall then 36 hours off.
I suppose another way to think of it may be in the same thought as a 36 hour reset which happens from say 6 am March 6 to 6 pm March 7. March 7 new 70 hours and also "day 1" of 14/24 rule.
I was going as hard as i could even having it planned so I am taking resets while under load. Result is an absolutely maximized 70 hours usually in 5 or 6 days. Also had me just about worn into the ground.
