    Either OP is a loyal and dedicated friend for questioning everyone's answer to his question, or he's too embarrassed to admit it's him cuz he knew he would geri bombarded.

    IT IS ILLEGAL FOR HIM TO DRIVE LIKE THIS - PERIOD!



    AND A warning, if your buddy gets into an accident and HURTS OR KILLS someone, not only his career is over but so is his finances. The insurance company WILL NOT help him out with anything other than his medical bills in some states, the insurance company will go after him as will the people's family he has harmed for this idiotic move.

    NOT to mention that the state (any state) will try to put his stupid ****** in jail for this move.

    AND on top of all of that, the two companies he worked for will also be sued for millions for not doing their job under the regs when he applies for the work driving.

    I think you nailed it.
    The defense and fight for clarification of answers he doesn't want to hear make it pretty obvious.

    Illegal, illegal, illegal! If you have to ask this question, chances are you shouldn’t be doing it.

    Who wants to work 20+ hours a day (well unless you’re super trucker billy big rigger)?

    When do you sleep/eat?

    Oh, and is completely illegal as just about everyone has pointed out.

    No, two jobs means hours worked at the first job goes into the logbook on the second. You cannot drive when your total worked is exceeding 70 hours in 8 days. So your extra job is a liability. You would not be able to drive anywhere enough to make anything.

    What you are proposing to do is illegal. That day has long since sailed. Others have already described the punishments you will endure across the board if someone is hit, hurt, killed etc while you are doing it illegally.
