Friday I got a warning for hand held devices and elogs malfunctioning

Well the handheld device... i assume on the phone? Not much to do there, get a headset

Elog malfunction...
Need more details, what was wrong?
It messed up a month ago and you just never fixed it? Yeah thats on you.
The screen is dead a day ago and you arent carrying your backup paper? Again, that would be on you.

You just never signed the elog? Thats not even on your company, thats straight up your fault.

Not sure how yahoo enters into it, assuming thats a typo but no clue

 

Nope

 

He did your log inspection. You fail to submit.
Signed or not doesn't matter. Did you refuse to sign or he didn't ask you?

 

No it doesnt, you got pulled over and then he didnt do an inspection but put you out of service and issued a ticket?

Thats fishy, mostly the story from you.

 

No legal help will help you. Once an eld malfunctions, it’s your responsibility to switch to paper logs ASAP.

And I’m certain your psp report will list the OOS

 

I believe an inspection has to be done in order for the LEO to look at logs. All they have to do is a level 3. But why is it so hard to carry a paper backup, which is required?

Hopefully, if the OP was using a handheld device, they get nailed to the wall with railroad spikes. If not, simply make them prove it in court. BTW, we functioned and lived for thousands of years without cell phones, if you can't do without for a few hours while driving, there are mental issues that need addressed by a psychiatrist.
