My question is.. Does California Intrastate HOS rules allow for the use of the 7/3 split? I seem to have a hard time nailing down an answer. Most publications seem to say it is a yes but then the CHP website has a slide show info page on HOS and one section mentions Interstate and intrastate (California) side by side. Shows 8/2 or 7/3 for interstate but only shows 8/2 split for California Intrastate. Any of you California guys know for sure one way or the other?
