    But I don't want anyone staying awake 27 hours just to sleep in their own bed for a few hours.

    Maybe your boss could put a little more effort in his job so that you can make a living and still run legal.

    I'm guessing you chose your words and meant LEGAL instead of safe. It's all about the rules freedom is scary is it not?

    I think we should ban all cab overs. They are unsafe, rough riding, and detrimental to the driver. They don't fit in with how my operation works there for they are unsafe. That's absurd..... so are elogs

    I've never seen a group of adults so scared of anything as elogs .
    I'm against elogs, yet I'm for elogs to see how bad it screws with drivers that can't obey the current hours of service.
    I feel like a spectator watching a great show

    Here's a legitimate reason to be afraid. Afraid if you value a low CSA score. Cause if there's any doubt about the legitimacy of your logs I have no doubt there will be plenty "only a warning" inspection tickets being written up.

    State agencies and CVSA do not have a CLEAR protocol for dealing with ELDs yet. And we're how many short months away?

    Presenting logs with ELDs at roadside
     
    25(2)+2 Thanks this.

    Again I'm exempt from HOS so elogs won't effect me. But reminds me a story that I heard about the natzis.
    The person said.
    one day the natzis came and carried away this group of people. Yet I did nothing. The next week they carried away that group of people. Yet I did nothing. Then they came for me. I cried for help but there was no one left.

    They are not coming for me....... yet. For now I'll do what I can do.

    They won't that's the point.
    Stay home if you're scared.
