Explain like I'm five the 10 hour break rule in the sleeper?

You are correct in that there have been no changes. The rules have always mandated that your log be kept current to your last change of duty status, and that your time is accurately recorded based upon how you actually spent your time. If you're inside the truck stop, you cannot be in the sleeper, and if you're in the sleeper, you aren't off duty. To log such is now and always has been a violation for log falsification, although it takes an officer bound and determined to write you up for something to really push that issue because time spent on either line counts the same toward your break. You can alternate between lines 1 and 2 every 15 minutes on paper (or every minute on elogs) for 10 straight hours and you've completed your break so long as you haven't dropped onto line 3 or 4 during that time.

 

No, because to log line 2, you're supposed to be "resting" in the sleeper. If you're working, line 4 would be what needs to be logged.

 

1 that was not designed to be serious.
2. You twisted my words.
3. Please link me the regulation outlining this required "resting" rule for the sleeper!

 

395.8(2) Sleeper. A continuous line SHALL be drawn between the appropriate time markers to record the period(s) of time off duty resting in a sleeper berth....

Says it right there in the green book "resting in the sleeper berth".

 

And if you do not have the green book handy like Scottie mentioned, here is the website directly from the horses mouth....
eCFR — Code of Federal Regulations

 

I will report the answer I get. I also asked for the name of the agent answering the question. Once answered I will make the name available. to be continued.

 

What was your question? I can answer it for your right now.

 

To answer the question about log books it is part of a drivers duties and by definition ON DUTY so if a sharp DOT wants to he can get you for logging sleeper to off duty.
You log sleeper when it is required and it is not required on a 10 hr break. A 10-2 split yes I don't know about teams.

 

So can I.
I'll wait for the answer but I bet it will create more questions

 

There is no fatigued basic. Just HOS compliance.
