7/60 or 8/70 question

395 does specifically say "The motor carrier" when talking about the 60/70 rule. No mention about a specific terminal, so since one terminal works 7 days all the company should log for 70 hours. II'll post the link when I get home as my phone blows trying to link....

Ok, after being able to actually look it up here's what FMCSA says... And I was mostly wrong on my previous post.

So to me that simply means ask your manager what he wants, as it's up to the carrier on how to classify you.

Reminds me of Class B tanker work hauling concrete in overtime 60 to 80 hours in 5 days flat including night time operations here in the heat of the summer day in Arkansas. If that clock is punched, we are still collecting over time pay even if we are snoring on the sand pile under the stars waiting for the call back.

I have never seen this question come up ever. Most companies take the 70 hours in 8 days. Why would they casterate themselves at 60 in 70 on the log book eh?

 

I was just working for pepsi, but they castrate themselves to the 7/60... and since they have split days off, i had wed/thurs and sundays off. I would technically never run out of hours since i'll be getting a reset twice a week, but they don't do it that way.. they log all the hours, expect on the weekends is when u get the reset. so on sunday.. it's so weird..
