Thank you all for your help and patience. Much appreciated. I understood it, my company confused me, changed their policy, confused me more and...
trust me, i get it. i am you talking to the company. they dont pay me to travel home. they pay me to travel from whereever i left the truck back...
So can they have me work 14, drop the truck and travel for 3 hrs to the car for a total of 17hrs? then the next day say use a 16hr?
example: Day1 13 hrs start/stop with truck at start location Day2 13 hrs start/stop with truck at start location Day3 13 hrs start and end at...
I am not OTR. I have 11/14/10/70. The little detail of if the truck has to be with me at the starting point is the sticking point for the...
The way my company and another company that does a similar run always interpreted the rule was we couldnt use a 16hr day because we left our...
I am being paid till i get to my car. logged out of the truck but still on the timeclock.

I have an odd situation. We deliver to an island and take a ferry over with the truck. At the end of the day we leave the truck, log off, add post...
I am not an otr trucker with fewer break options. There are plenty of stores and restaurants and beaches, etc. ###### straight I want to leave my...
Again, neither the company nor any of the drivers like the new regs. People not taking ferries take a break in the middle of the day,, walk away...
Time-wise yes. Pay-wise no.
So people don't have to look it up: 395.1 (j)#Travel time(1) When a property-carrying commercial motor vehicle driver at the direction of the...
Are you saying 395.1 (j) doesn't apply but because if something did happen and I had to act I should be on duty not driving anyway? Neither...
We have always logged it on duty not driving.
I don't really want to take a break but if I have to, I don't want to be forced to do it on a no frills ferry. They are asking this so as not to...
I pick up my tractor and trailer, go to a ferry and take a couple hour trip before delivering on the other side. I have always been paid for this...
