Ok, let's be clear...........if OFF DUTY; you are OFF DUTY. None of their business if you slept in the truck, in a motel, or in your future ex-girlfriend's bed. The sleeper berth thing is a "new" piece of easy fodder that WY has picked up on of late. We put up with it; they will interpret it to suit them. Every other industry it's the other way around.
Logging off duty when in sleeper. Yes or no?

I was told you have to prove that. you have to keep the receipt and all that. Who cares?
what if I wasn't at a hotel? what if I have family who came to see me and I spent the night with them? how do I prove that?
you spend the night in another drivers truck, how do you prove that?
incorrect, if you're sitting in the passenger seat its line 1, if you're in the sleeper berth its line 2.
that seems like arguing semantics, but whatever -
When he asked, were you in the sleeper the whole time? Start coughing without covering your mouth and tell him you stayed in the sleeper because you have the flu.
