    I was wondering if there's a way to hack geotab drive so I can edit my driving hours.

    I doubt you will get the answer you are looking for here. I would be willing to bet only the administrator to your log dept could edit the driving hours.

    Thanks Shogun. My boss tried already. He can edit almost anything except my driving.

    You’re welcome. You should be ok as long as you don’t get inspected in the next seven days. Is it possible to claim any of the driving time as personal conveyance or making a note that you were driving to safe haven to find parking due to inclement weather or adverse conditions, etc? Those are a couple possibilities.

    Yes I have these exemptions but it's not what I'm looking for. I'd really like to edit my driving so we don't lose to many customers because I'm 1 hour late or so.

    How are you going to edit drive time? You'll also have to edit the gps location tag associated with where the drive time started (or ended). That's sort of the point.

    How are you going to lose a customer? Isn't you're competition going to have the same issues? Or are you going to maybe have to be more mindful of your stopped time? Regardless, you're not dealing with anything that hasn't been addressed elsewhere 10,000 times over, before. The Receiver or shipper is just going to have to get with the new program.
