Which makes sense. You weren't actively leased or contracted to anyone and running under their ID, and you weren't an employee in a company truck.
How did I miss this? Can now use personal conveyance to leave a shipper loaded

Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
I knew this crap the FMCSA pulled is going to get it defined and many of you won't like it when it does.
PC is not to be used unless it is limited and reasonable.
Taking a load from X to the receiver is not allowed, read the guidance. It is after you pick it up, you can reasonably use it to find a place to park or eat, but that's pretty much it.
Now if you guys want to argue this, then I suggest first get loaded and try to drive to your drop under PC and in route stop at the scales and show them what you are doing. -
Few weeks ago I sat for 20hrs waiting on a loaded trailer at a Kraft facility that was 16hrs past its DDT time.. only to wait an additional 6hrs at the reciever getting unloaded..
This was for a drop/hook that was a 350 mile load....
It's why I want out of refeer..rank Thanks this. -

You all just figuring out that the companies are losing money by not running hard and fast and the drivers are getting rested now which is against the way truckers have always been. They have the money so they have the control, They are not in business to lose money and you are just the worker drones.

On top of all this I was stuck on this load for 3 days because of this #### and lost a load each day... I will never take another Kraft food load. -
I find the best policy is to have pay for that crap lined out before I touch the load.
The problem on the perishable side is for decades people have just let them bend them over for free. When you folks get tired of not even getting a reach around and demand adequate compensation for these wasted days it will end. -
I suspect Prime is big enough and does enough of their loads that they won't get away not paying, I just don't know how much yet.. I know tney billed them my 16hrs of detention at the shipper but I dunno if they will try to weasel their way out somehow nor do I know what I'm getting for the detention at the reciever or for transporting the mispicks..
Before I knew about the m ispicks I had already told them I was expecting the 16hrs detention and at least 1 full day of layover pay.. However that was before I had to transport the mis picks an additional 145 miles.
