Is this government or my company?

Steering wheel movement won't trigger the drive line. The wheels rolling on the ground will, though.

 

That’s BS. You can’t “drive” a truck with the engine off and the brakes set.

If your company has your ELD set to detect steering wheel movement and go on Line 3.

You need a new company. The mandate if I understand it correctly, will require Line 3 on any movement above 5mph

 

I think its time to go do something different.

 

Can you reply back how much you'll get paid for being on duty/driving?

 

Excuse me while I jiggle the wheel squeezing to and from everything in that cab. Maybe the CAT will get up there, STRETCH, claws out and hang from a spoke before wrapping to nap inside the nice wheel itself.

Stupid company. Intent on tightening the thumbscrews of enforcement.

My solution? Remove the half inch bolt from the U joint of the column on the engine side of the fire wall. Spin that wheel freely without activating *&^%

 

Steering wheel movement will not trigger anything. My company updated to the "enhanced" AOBRD as well and the only time it will change is one I start rolling. (Brakes off and in gear)

Your company determines the policies...

I.E. - I can move (in sleeper) as long as I am under 20 MPH and don't go over a mile. We also have "Yard move" which will put you on duty, but not driving. But once I go over said criteria, it switches to drive.

So with that said, I would ask your company for clarification of it's policies and ask for guidelines in writing. If you don't know, then how do they expect you to comply.
