8 days a month OTR with paper logs?

The highway patrol had no problem. FMCSA has the issue thinking all of the trucks are runnin like the 80s

 

Send them copies of your IFTA reports. They'll show how many miles a month each truck ran in each state.

 

They clearly want you to have an ELD in all the trucks. They may be on their way to take a closer look at ya. The question is, how far are you running your trucks?

 

Sorry you wasted your time, this forum is nothing more than comic relief. You won’t see a bigger bunch of whiners and just downright idiots that claim to be professional owner operators than here. I hope you find the answer to your question though.

 

He got some good answers. Who are all these “whiners and downright idiots “ you are referring to?

 

LOL

 

When I did otr. My logs were on laptop.

Cops never had a problem. But the office whiners always cried about some stupid crap.

There's always someone that wants some cheese with their whine.

Does it really cost $1000 for eld?

 

do the drivers that only work the 8 days, fill out an ‘off-duty’ paper log for those days they don’t drive and turn them in?

 

8 days? One more thing I don't understand. Are we talking days which are 24 hrs? So 192 hrs?

 

If there are more than 8 days out of a 30 day period that require you to run a log then you need an ELD unless you fall under one of the other exemptions.
