Computer Logs (not Elog)

Or is there any other program that work on iPad?

 

Don't get it what's wrong with paper logs ? Soon E-Logs will be here and you'll have to use it anyway and trash your software (?) log stuff.

if people arent updating their paper logs, which just requires you reach over and grab a pen, what makes you think they're gonna fire up their laptop, hook everything up and do it this way? especially for every duty status change... at the end of the day, for it to look nice and neat if you cant do the lines and your writing is horrible sure, but don't think this would make those that cant draw 2 lines to change their duty status motivated to do more work, unless these programs automatically change your duty status for you like most elogs?

 

I don't understand. I use Paper Logs. No Violations EVER on HOS or Form and Manner. What is so hard? It's your job as a Professional Truck Driver to update your Status as yer Status changes. As Blue pointed out, grab yer pen, ruler and log book, take the 3 seconds of yer time, to do yer job and draw the 2 lines.

I have been told by DOT in Washington State and California (Banning of all places) that my Paper Logs were "Exceptional" on Form and Manner.

If you update yer Status as you are required to do and can add 1+1 .. what is the problem?

 

2/3 rd's of the orientation class had no idea how to do paper logs, not sure how their going to do when they get an inspection. So don't plan on getting the green light in the near future

 

Paloma, do you prefer paper over Elogs? Obviously, you've done both.

 

I'm that driver. The log book portion has been working like a charm for me since early August. I was pulled into the Le Grand CA (Highway 99) scale for inspection in September, and the logs passed.
