    When asking 10 people, I get 5 different answers.
    Is it 160 kms from home?

    Requirement to fill out a daily log:

    37.18.01 (1)A carrier must require every driver to fill out and every driver must fill out a daily log each day that accounts for all of the driver's on-duty time and off-duty time for that day.

    (2)This section does not apply if;
    (a)the driver operates or is instructed by the carrier to operate a commercial motor vehicle within a radius of 160 km of the home terminal,
    (b)the driver returns to the home terminal each day to begin a minimum of 8 consecutive hours of off-duty time, and
    (c)the carrier maintains accurate and legible records showing, for each day, the driver's duty status and elected cycle, the hour at which each duty status begins and ends and the total number of hours spent in each status and keeps those records for a minimum period of 6 months after the day on which they were recorded.

    Thank you.
    When I said 160 kms, several people told me that was incorrect.

    heh, anyone who argues on 160km will likely tell you it's 100 miles and they know better
     
    Oxbow and Pamela1990 Thank this.
