    Yes, a paper backup is required. But that means a blank paper log book in possession in case your e-logs fail.

    And so are the visor cards... lack of either a blank paper log or the visor cards during a DOT inspection will probably get you written up.

    A "dummy" card for the police, so they can try to read your logs on the Qualcomm. Basically a "how to" guide...

    There is one card for the DOT, and two for the driver. You have to have all three.

    Umm... never looked at them myself. Too #### simple. Even a caveman could figure this stuff out!

    When i was at 911, i could run you and find out how many times you peeped down your 7th grade math teachers blouse.

    Not really.... but ALMOST.

    The days of getting away with stuff in other states is GONE.

    I'm not navigating your AOBR. THe driver is responsible to bring up his previous 7 days. Faxing or email does not always work either, due to the fact at roadside, we dont have a fax machine and internet can sometimes not be available.
