30 minute break exemption has expired

Looks like last time it was extended about a week after expiring.

Though that also had a Notice for comments posted in April of 2020. No notice this time. I guess SC&RA didn't reapply for it.

 

Lol so even the feds are like "Hey guys you uh forgot something."

Here is a direct link to the notice PDF. You MUST have this document in your possession to use the exemption.

Never had anyone ask to see it or even question why I never take that silly assed break.

 

GSP Motor Carrier guy had never heard of it. Said I was the first person to ever mention it.

Wrote me up on an inspection even when I showed him the FMCSA website and the paper copy I carry. He said since he had never heard of it he didnt believe me. Company was able to fight it and have it removed.

 

Hah! I guess he knows every law in the books. What a tool. I’d probably have cussed him and made him call a supervisor.

 

haul bigger stuff and they'll stop asking silly questions

not my picture

 

oh they will ask questions - just not the ones you expect.

I believe the questions start with “are you out of your F N mind?”
