Get ready for e-lect-ronic logs!

I had no Idea Knight was running the electric logs, Go figure

 

Hey Sad Panda,
I just scrolled thru all my canned macros and dont have any new ones yet. Do you know what msg numbers they are? (like msg #18 is a request for a comcheck etc)

 

That's odd! My msgs stop at 55! even when I type in the numbers, I dont have those macros...YET!

 

After the mandatory "class" a month or so ago, where it was stated that logs would be compared with GPS locations, I figured I could go with the flow. That lasted about a week.

Been out here too long, and when I was trained, EVERYBODY referred to to logbooks as the "funny pages". Make'm look good when you send them in, but any semblance to reality was purely coincidence.

Guess I'll drive for Knight until they kick me out, which probably won't be too long.

My ethic is "get the freight there on time, no matter what". Too old fashioned for these days, I guess.

 

Yes sir you heard correctly.

The drivers will be rated along with the carriers. Basically in a nutshell, a driver that gets a violation will not only be hurting himself he will be hurting his employer. And yes an estimated 175,000 CDL holders will be disqualified from operating a commercial vehicle by this time next year.
