Right, that is what I am taking about, that started about a year and a half ago. If it changes itself it reverts back to when it started moving. If you manual change it it won't.
Example, I pull out of a truck stop, it's busy with a red light, takes 5 minutes to get out of the parking lot, even though I am off duty, it will put those 5 minutes to the drive line.
What I do now is at the light, before I start rolling, I change it to drive myself and that leaves the previous 5 minutes off duty.
Try that sometime, should work the week for you.

Yes I started doing that a while back, I had gone On Duty/Empty Call and 17 minutes into it having pulled forward to close doors, backed up to slide tandems all that, and rolled out the out gate, soon as the speed/distance auto tripped it to Drive line, it backed the driving up all those 17 minutes.bamalife123 and KMac Thank this. -
Oh ya. Good catch.
And don't put def in diesel and vice versa.bamalife123 Thanks this. -

Love it ... To the op, if you get one prick of a dot enforcement officer looking at your logs and ask for fuel reciepts to figure out if you are right or wrong logging off duty, he can ding you for a log violation. No matter what others say, it only takes one to ruin your day and beleive me there are a lot of them out there trying to ruin your day.
And if you want to extend your 70, then learn how to manage your time.speedyk and bamalife123 Thank this. -
Just run some washer fluid through your next tank, that should clean it right up for you.bamalife123 and Steel Tiger Thank this.

Yep that's why I always walk in and grab the fuel receipt and carry them with the BOL's
washout receipts and cat scale receipts etc.bamalife123 Thanks this.
