Maine DOT

It was false because he was in one location when he was proven to be in another. It had nothing to do with updating his log books.

Many drivers need to learn from his/her mistake and understand the tolls will be matched to the log sheets. What they do is take the last duty status and the toll receipt (or possibly they know you went through the toll) and take the miles versus the speed limit to make sure you have enough driving time on your log sheet to be there at that time.

Lesson learned: ALL DOCUMENTS MUST MATCH YOUR LOGS!

 

For as long as I've been in "this" business, I cannot see where $910 comes in for one violation, much less, what criminal act was committed? There was a self admitted log mistake / falsification but that is still a motor vehicle offense correct?

 

That's what I am thinking?? Something doesn't seem right

 

Seems to me that I heard somewhere that it was cheaper in that state to have no logbook as compared to a log violation. The ticket for no log book was 85.00 and the log violation was around 2,000. I really wish I could remember the state. I remember only that it was in the midwest.

I remember now... It was a fine issued by the fmcsa on a driver during an audit.
