Mandatory logging on duty fueling

Well, we can devise a method to do rolling fueling like the military does. A fuel probe extends from the front of the tractor to mate with the receptacle on the rear of a tanker. You radio ahead to the next interchange, the tanker pulls out in front of you and you receive your diesel.
NO STOPPING.

 

Omg that better be a DOT approved interchange device, or else you might get a spanking and a FINE that’ll completely consume your life until death. Omg pray for a month straight that they don’t catch you in the act, WITHOUT approval omg the tears are burning of fear

 

My 389 identifies as a E-truck. So I will be unable to comply. E-Truck lives matter, E-Truck pride month, inclusive fueling, celebrate E truck diversity. - that’s about all the nonsense words I can think of that I got forced down my throat this year. Sure wish I still had black smoke life.

 

I was rather well versed at fabricating MY Log Books.
E-Logs, not at all, but still did NOT log Fueling.

 

This is also gonna clog up the fuel isles even more. Now some truckers take their sweet time in the fuel aisle but most of us try to move along and most of us are out of there in about eight minutes or so. Very seldom does it take 15 minutes unless you’re driving a reefer. And you gotta feel both. Even then 10 minutes is usually suffice. So across-the-board you’re gonna have people sitting at the fuel pump for 15 minutes and then pulling forward for another 15 minutes. Just gonna create more of a mess.

Furthermore, most all of us, myself included considering stopping for fuel a break. You get out, you move around you get some circulation going you stretch your legs for a few minutes and it gives you a little recharge. Shouldn’t have to log on duty for it at all.

 

My paper log only has 15 minutes increments, guess I’ll survive.

 

I call bs on this, I did a super search on the entire fmcsa site and nothing in the above quote came up.

 

That was my inclination too
Fueling is on duty anyway so meh

 

That just means if it takes less than 15 minutes it never happened.

 

I thought you were supposed to take a shower while still on the fuel island??
