    You really love reading into what is not said. When did I bring up ELD's in regards to your (possible) illegal activities?

    You specifically stated you have zero violations so therefore you are legal.
    Sorry, you either are legal or not. Getting caught is a secondary subject.

    I could ask you the same. I’m going to ask you a question and I want a yes or no answer.
    Q. Do you think there was more ELogs on the roads in calendar year 2017 than in any year previous?

    In the calendar year, as an average, I would say no. People did not start adding ELD's until the last couple months of 2017, or they already had AORB version of elogs in their truck that they have had for awhile.
    Plenty of reports from ELD's suppliers support this, but I will admit I have no hard data. Mostly I'm going on how scarce ELogs got in November and December of 2017.

    I would expect as Dec 17th 2017 got closer and closer, more and more trucks to have some form of electric logs. In your view, what CY prior to 2017 saw peak ELD and EOBR use?

    I don't have any information on that, and no opinion as I see it as irrelevant. Not just to the topic at hand, but to any topic I can think of. In any case, it definitely has no bearing on the topic at hand.

    ZVar isn't a fool. He didn't answer because he didn't know. He said there was no hard data, speaking of hard data, where's yours to back that assertion? How would everyone have known that? Why is that even useful info?
     
    roshea and ZVar Thank this.

    And with the insults, that tells me you have no desire to actually provide data.
    Sorry, can't help you justify your feelings based on nothing but hating life.

    Sorry,. last response. I was hoping you were actually wanting a discussion. I guess I was being too generous.

    Sorry...I’ll rephrase.....any logical person would be foolish to argue it. Is that acceptable enough?

    And Yes I suspect it will be your last post now that you see you’re wrong.

    Oh god, some people. Thanks for that chuckle.
    (Yes I guess I was wrong in it being the last post)
    Some people have to have the last word, no matter that they have to result to insults to get it. Sad state of humanity.
