I've browsed these forums enough to know that not all truckers are men of character and sterling qualities and some have been known to "stretch the truth" with respect to log book entries.
For my personal enrichment, does anybody know how others cheat? (I realize nobody on this forum cheats, so I am looking for information that you learned from others or what you look for when auditing log books).
Soooo, let's hear about the various shenanigans that are prevalent in the log book world!
How does one "fudge the log"

Doesnt really matter,the basics are still the same
Run out to the end of the chain and then "back up"
Log book tweaking isnt a science secret,its 4 time lines marking 24hrs
When you can log it as you run it without problems its best to do so
When it aint best to do so you adjust "backwards",fuel stops are your mile markers and the rest is like the gearbox. Which should be floated
Run a round robin and drop the last trip instead of running into a 34.
Be ready for the Legal Eagles to ramble for another 20 pages . . .
