    Unless you also signed a NDA or there is a specific clause in the contract prohibiting it, you can do with it as you please.
    Granted, that's in general. I'm just a newbie stalking the Choice threads to see if it's something worth considering at some point down the road.

    It should be made public for all to see, that way nobody gets surprised upon orientation.

    I never would have been here had I known they didn't allow the split sleeper.

    Just checked the safety compliance agreement, it specifically says line 5 does not count toward your 11 or 70. Somebody needs to go verse themselves on SNIs policy.

    Per my ICA when i asked why no split sleeper...

    "We think drivers are more well rested on a 10 hour break"


    No joke

    I've heard that line from them as well. Nevermind if you stop at a rest area or some place with limited amenities to sleep when your tired, then have no time to grab a good meal and shower since you had to sit there twiddling your toes waiting for 10 hrs to click over.

    Yeahhhhh you technically can but you risk getting caught.

    I got caught lol.
    Only reason was I got to a customer right after that caused me getting paid detention so they probably looked into my hours.
    Soo i got beached out, what else is new lol.

    I just find it amazing that Schneider thinks they know better than the FMCSA lol.

    However I think Schneider uses that "better sleep" excuse when really they probably just want hours/trip planning to be easier for all the steering wheel holders here.

    Theres something going on....and I am sure some IC's completely mess up there planning...I am more concerned about some of these "loads" that after we book them have changes to them such as drop times or dates. I had that happen a month ago I called in and there like it never changed I said well I screen shot every load .....complete silence..I emailed it to them and while I proved my point it did kick up a little dirt if you know what I mean. I also dont understand why this quarterly traning is so backwards that we cant do it on our laptops...

    Be Safe Out There
