HOS violation!

You can drive if u need Safety Haven. Thats a magical safe place for drivers who are new to trip planning..

 

Didn't say that. Just said I don't go through the hassle you all do with appt times conflicting with h.o.s. Except for the 30 minute break that I can ignore when under a load.

 

Uummmm, yes you did

 

Okay, I see what you're doing now.LOL. I meant that I am not pushed to maximize all my hours of driving each day like many seem to be.

 

I knew what you was trying to say as i pull a lot of od loads myself.

 

Hey i was just curious if you unhook your trailer and are now driving Bob - tail are you still restricted by the driving hours ?

 

I thought you did,but I don't mind being corrected. Don't want folks getting the wrong impression.

 

Where I'm at you can't use pc if your under dispatch.
You can't be out of hours.
You can't even have a empty trlr assigned to you in the system.
I can't remember if DOT allows use of PC if your 70 and/or 14 are gone.

 

430 miles. 8 hours max. And that is if you are a f'off prime inc type of slow.

But hey you'll learn this trip planning stuff someday..........or not.

The biggest two things you need to learn...
1) The 10 hour break is your time. If they call and wake you up that is your fault for not silencing your phone.

2) You plan, and schedule truck movement. Any office personnel that tells you" Better start out at XX:XX" should hear a loud laugh as you hang up the phone.
