Running illegal

My boss is trying to make me run illegal, and I do not like it. He is a small O/O with 2 trucks. So far he has a perfect safety rating. His trucks are old and have some problems. According to him, he always follows the 11 hour rule, but not the 14, because he cannot control how long it takes at the "shipper." The trip he has me running is at least 37.25 hours if nothing goes wrong. The last trip took about 45 hours, but I made it "legally", at least according to my log book. So if I leave at 0500 Thursday, I am expected to be back by 1900 on Friday. The trip is about 1050 miles. I made a "test" log to see what would happen under the best case scenario, logging it legally: 10 Hours SB or off duty; 19.75 Hours Driving; 7.5 Hours On Duty. There are a lot of stops on this trip, many of them taking over 2-3 hours. This does not allow for any stopping for restroom breaks or meals, only a 10 hour break. Again, this is best case, not likely to happen this way. I want to keep my job, but I also want to come home to my family, as well as keep the general motoring public safe. I am wondering what I should do. Should I pull into a weigh station with logs that are not legal, and ask to be inspected? I just want to do what is right, and still have a job. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

The whole trip took 45 hours. I am a car hauler, and may make 4 stops, possibly even more. Each stop takes at least an hour sometimes as much as 3 hours or more. It took me over an hour the other day to find just 1 car at an auction. Not to mention the time to get through security, load it, and get it secured.

 

I am positive that what I said is not legal. What I am asking for is how to get my bosses attention without getting fired. I do not fuel on my trips, if I do it is at the beginning or end. I do not travel toll roads. If there are any documents in my truck that would indicate when or where I pick up or drop a load, you can bet your butt that my log book will reflect that. I pay for everything in cash. I am trying to figure this all out. With the economy the way it is, there are not hundreds of trucking companies knocking at my door.

 

We do not have quallcom, but I will buy a voice recorder. This is some of the finest advice I have ever recieved. So if I ask to be shut down, are you sure that I will not get a fine?

 

I did not even mention the fact that this is only possible if the truck was already loaded the truck the day before...
