In all my years I’ve never heard a cdl driver describe OTR work as “long haul”. It’s usually non drivers who use that term. Shrugs.
ELD makes drivers speed to beat the clock?

If I recall correctly, they added the 30 minute break requirement at the same time they added an hour to available driving time, so really, we ended up with a better deal. I usually need a bathroom break after 5 or so hours on the road, anyway.

Spec'ally if there is pizza or hoagies to eat while waiting. -
The biggest problem with the 30 minute break is, if you're running at night, where are you supposed to take it if the truck stops and rest areas are full? Oh, I know. The fuel island.
Cabinover101 and Timin770 Thank this. -
Snailexpress and x1Heavy Thank this.

I spent some time not stopping.
I did not understand then how it was so easy just to work until the day is gone and keep going with paper in the bunk. Sort that out later. In my later years paperwork was exceeding 2 hours daily. -
Cabinover101, Long FLD, tarmadilo and 5 others Thank this.
