    Not when you have been unlucky to have spent a large portion of the 14 in two separate docks and have to drive miles to get paid.

    There appears to be an information overload.

    The simple fact is every trucker is subject to the hours-of-service.

    The 100 air mile exception is from the LOG BOOK nothing else.

    If a carrier wishes to utilize the 100 air-mile radius exception they need timecards with the following information:

    1. Start time
    2. End time
    3. Total hours on-duty

    The other three conditions are:

    1. 100 air-mile radius
    2. No more than 12 consecutive hours on-duty from start to stop time
    3. 10 hours off between shifts.

    So provided a carrier meets all of the above no log books are required...

    Miss one part? Do a log book for that day.

    Be safe.

    Technically the driver in the 100 mile air radius can drive for 12 hrs.

    Yes, and you can also accumulate 90 hrs a 7 day period in my state. One exception, HAZMAT drivers must go by the federal standards.

    POTH:

    No, drivers cannot drive more than 11 hours. The driver must be released within 12 conseuctive hours to use the 100 air-mile exception from the log book.

    I'm not sure that's true, but you're free to provide information demonstrating what you say is factual.

    It appears Washington state uses the HOS in effect in 1985 for intrastate commerce. I didn't find a 90 hour rule...

    Be safe.
