How far back do they look at your logs after an accident?

Depends on how badly you screwed up. The driver that caused a school bus crash in MN several years ago was up on vehicular manslauter charges, but the prosecutors went after him for log book violations going back quite awhile. They got him on several counts, and put him away on consecutive sentences.

If they can show that the Walmart driver was at fault, I'd imagine he will do some time over this one.

 

I don't recall off of the top of my head, but I do think the log violations were across a couple of years. The driver rolled his truck on a turn at night, and ended up across a 2-lane highway. The bus ran into the truck, killing a number of kids. They went after the log violations since cumulatively they could get much more jail time out of that, than going after the criminal charges. Usually, log violations are just minor stuff... unless you motivate a prosecutor to go after you.

I do recall seeing it posted on TTR, so if you're really interested, I'm sure you can find it.

 

I believe from a companys responsibility to hold records of previous logs its a couple years, as far as the WM driver deal in NJ, he is on E-logs and obviously working for WM he has a good record otherwise he wouldnt be working for them, and before he worked for them he must have had a spectacular DAC,SMS,Back ground and what not...

 

that's what i was thinking. how can they go back 2 years if 6 months is all that's kept.

 

15 min that all the law allows

 

An attorney can get a subpoena for as far back as he wants and qualcomm will comply.

It is your responsibility to download and store 3 to 5 years for tax purposes.
