Started with a new carrier. They use paper logs. Since I’ve never used a paper log, EVER, I could use some training.
Can someone point me to a good resource that explains how to fill them out.
Thanks in advance.
ELD to Paper Logs help needed.

Don’t overthink it….Log it like you did it….same as eld…
Stop somewhere…draw a line to either on duty/off…before you pull out…draw another line back to drive
ONLY difference is…you are now working in only 15 minute increments….Rule of thumb has always been
More than 7minutes…got to next 1/4 hour
Less than 7 use previous 1/4
Other than that you’ll hafta show at least a full 1/4 hour for pre/post trip…fueling…ckg on at stop..whereas an eld allows for actual time
Don’t be afraid to come back and ask if you have specific questions

Now you have to keep track of your clocks. Double check your addition and subtraction. Easy to make a 1/4 hour mistake.
