I decide to post my question here, cause I am in process of buying the truck. Actually ordered one from a dealer.
But...
I am still a company driver for one of mega carriers. A few days ago, when I plan to lease to them with my truck instead of being a company driver, I got information from my manager, that I've got two log book violations. Basically I forgot to put fueling when I actually fuel on my qualcomm. Company is using electronic logs. One three months ago and one two weeks ago. He told me that this information was reported to regulatory (FMSCA???). Will it actually hurt me in my future employment or buying insurance if I decide to go with my own authority?
Do I actually got any csa points for it?
Is it that bad, or it's ok?

You never received a ticket or inspection from a DOT officer and they never came in to audit your company I'm assuming since you never signed the ticket correct? So where's the violation if there was no ticket? I'm sure with the company it was a violation but that has nothing to do with your CSA points etc......and if you put it on your Qualcomm then how did you not log it? Sounds to me like your manager is full of bull crap. Know the laws before you buy a truck although it sounds like it's already too late. Just my thoughts.

what the hell is your company talking about? Your duty status changed correct and the city and state was updated correct? If that is the case I'd be having a talk with your company and tell the pencil pushing biggit in your log office to read the laws. City and state flag is all that is required per federal law and that they need to back off.

So, thanks for information! No css points for me which is great! -
If my company reported every violation or time I bent the rules a bit I'd be standing in the bread line! And yes, my CSA and MVR are clean.
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
it's not a csa thing for you. unless dot caught it in 8 days. if you were to get inspected.
but fmcsa can audit company back 6 months and that could result in some kind of hand slapping for them.
it's the old addage. crap floats downhill. -
