    HOS 70/34 thing changing I'm expecting it to drop because of the max 70 hours in a 7 day period. So i'll be running no more than 9 hours a day MAX.

    Maybe this is a dumb question but can you explain why only 9hrs and not 10?

    Better to roll ur Recap hrs. If u ran driving/on duty hrs at 10 aday, in 7 days ur out of hrs. But if u run say 8.75-9 u can roll ur hrs w/o running out being forced to take a reset. When that rule comes into effect u can only take 1 reset every 168 hrs( something like that. I might be off a few hrs)

    You have me mistaken for a true Texan.. GO TIGERS! and.. GO RED WINGS while we're at it!

    Most of us are on e-logs... some are still making the transition in the 379's.

    If you log about 8-9 hours a day you would always have some hours to work everyday. The 70 hour rule is for 8 days. 10 hours a day for seven days equals 70. You would have to take the 8th day off. Unless you could fit in a 34 hour restart. Was applying to Landstar but decided against it due to e-logs.
     
    DrtyDiesel and Bigdubber Thank this.
