AOBRD vs ELD

My understanding is no DeWayne in moving truck to it putting you on the driving line .

 

What exactly are you concerned about fudging up in the transition?

 

Well, there ya go.
Well done Scooter

 

You missed the <5mph triggers driving status. Must be 5 or under, including any movement at all if it's set up that way.

 

I have a stupid question.
Lets say you have some work performed and the mechanic test drives your truck, is there a way to record it is being driven, but not by the driver?
What if they service your truck, then take it out and hook up for you, and you come in 30 minutes later to start your shift, does it account for things like this?

 

Whoever administrates the ELD should add a mechanic/service user to account for this.

 

Yeppers. What should happen is when putting the truck in the shop the driver should log out. And log out, not just go off duty.
The mechanic should log in with his id if he drives it and the movement will be his.

What will likely happen is the driver logs out when putting in the shop. The truck will get movement recorded without anyone logged in. The driver will then log in when he gets the truck back and the eld will ask about those movements. Just tell the eld it wasn't you and you are good to go.

 

Ok. I was wondering about that.
If that is the case. what is to keep a guy from making a quick shuttle or running down to get a bite to eat or anything. and telling the eld that it isn't you? I know goofy questions. but it seems far from fool proof in some regards.
