    Hold that train man stop stop. You can run hard on E Logs didnt you know? If the company is got the miles and you got the drive perfect combination. You went straight into the hot water cant believe it.

    Yeah why would you assume I ran illegal? Lol I have e logs and they focus more on out of route and mpg anyway. What happened was I didn't get a fuel bonus on the second quarter and when asked "why not?" They said that my mpg wasn't good enough. So I made it an effort to increase my mpg with less idling and slower stopping and acceleration, and through experience I learned better planning to maximize my driving schedule.

    Congrats, hard work pays of.
    Just one honest newbie question. How can you drive 11 hours? I thought we were only alowed 10, is there a way around it? I can drive a car 15 hrs only stoping for gas and eating while driving. Thanks.

    11 hours driving 10 hour break is the current law. You have the numbers backwards.
