    Hahahahahahahaha .... man.... thats it, put your head in the sand. Your not getting less money, your just not allowed to run as many miles in 1 sitting. There is a difference. Charge more for your miles, make the same, work less duh!


    (And im the fool?)

    I only hope they will at some point revamp the hos, thats the only real problem. If it was a continuous rolling 12 hours driving in a 24 hour period or something like that, where in you could stop your clock after 30 minutes of stopped time...

    The only way to fix the issue will be logistical wise more drop yards, relays, teams,new drivers, underpaid drivers, fleeced drivers, and the smart regional owner operators. I think the Megas got all that covered what’d a think?!

    The only thing accurate in that statement ous the 30 minute break. No where I the green bible does it state a minimum time limit to do a pti or fuel.

    Could be the system he bought or the one the company installed. That stuff can be a fixed time...
