Isn't Canada still procrastinating over certified ELD's? I have not been following this closely but thei last article I read mentioned that very few devices were approved. What will happen to US trucks entering Canada with a non compliant ELD? One of the nany weaknesses of Canadian government is they always want to be different. The CRTC is a good example. On the other hand our Southen neighbors allowed the ELD mfrs. to self certify. A ridiculous idea. Some of the cell phone apps are useless.

 

Technically there's no violation. You just can't drive until you get your sleeper time.

 

Line 3: When you drive "hard" to make an appointment you will not bump a dock for 2 hours after your arrival.

 

Yep. For us in daycabs, 14 is it.

 

Nope. For us in daycabs the same rules apply as a sleeper truck. You can be on duty 168 hours continuously in a week. What you can't do is drive after the 14th hour without the proper off duty/sleeper period.

 

Ours puts us in violation if we’re on duty after 14.

 

That's company policy/crappy eld. It's not part of the regulation.

 

I’m guessing it’s because we run 5 14’s in a row.

 

It is obvious that fmca does not understand anything about trucking. Many things should not be written in stone. It is ridiculous that moving your truck from the pumps to a parking area starts your driving log. Maybe the shmucks that write the regs should experience the job.
