i may be an ex-driver but i bet sooner or later tmc will have to go to paperless logs.(could the feds make them go to paperless logs?) i was shocked that the pumpkin drivers have paperless logs now and i have also hear through the trucker grapevine/rumor mill that c.r. england will be getting or they are testing paperless logs.
In the next 5 years im sure the FMCSA with require all trucks to have OBR's. Its all because of the Highway Safety Board that thinks that this will make trucks more safe. The only problem with this is the fact that 70% of accidents that involve a truck is the result of a 4 wheeler.
