Log Book Hours

a little information on ez pass you might not know. you better hope your log book matches the toll booths and toll roads. this is an easy was drivers get caught by showing diferent than the toll tickets. dot is not as dumb as drivers play them. they know all the tricks

 

That is true Jack

 

just run legal, if dot audits your company, your company will have to pay the fine. stick with what jackfrost is telling you.as long as you have your license you have a job.if your company is trying to run you more than you can log, go somewhere else.

 

of course it is true i only speak the truth or from my experiences

 

If the company is forcing drivers to break HOS, I'd be worried more about what else the company is going to do in lieu of safety. Not something I'd be wild about. To me, there are more serious problems than fudging log books.

 

there are stricter states than others. virginia and north carolina right there are very strict especially running up eighty one or ninety five. but that is a different story.

 

i totallly agree with you here. if i am forced to run illegal then i think it would be time for me to find another job

 

I am still supprised that your company makes you log at all. As long as you are within a 300 mile radius, and home every night, normally they would accept the time card as your log.
But...Even following that rule, or at least it is the rule in NY, you cannot work over the 60 hours in 7 days, or 70 in 8, whichever the company uses. Though being off work weekends will fix that.

Really, check the laws of the states you run in. I know running just NY and PA, within the 300 miles, I never needed a log book. It was all based on my time card.
