Need experience advice on 70/34

you can run up to 8.25 hours everyday including on duty time and have time everyday
i run reefer loads sometimes we get stuck with only a 4 hour day then pick up next load the next day
i go weeks without taking a 34

 

BBL'S Don't have a clue. They are there to play God. You have to run with the load you have. When does it have to be delivered, or received. You can't just set hours to run and stay with those hours. If you want to maximize, yoou'll have to run the most loads you can in 70. That's when you start backing off, or restarting.

 

That makes no sense . Resetting gives you more running hours in a week . It wouldn't bother me at all to start Monday , run 5 14 hour days , and reset on the weekend . In fact I usually do reset at home on weekends . Why would you want to run every day of the week ?

 

Drivers with CPAPs should not have the idle restricted on their trucks . Even no idle states allow an exception for it .

Drivers should know idling policy of carriers when applying for the job . Don't work for these 5 minute idle carriers

 

This is what you do go tell your dbl that you want to be on a dedicated account. Most accounts have you work 5 days off 2 except around holidays they keep you within 400 miles of a terminal. For whatever reason you run out of hours you will be close enough to a terminal to run illegally for 3 hours. I know ima catch flak for this but that's what I did for 3 months straight at sni didn't get caught and there were plenty of times I worked 20 hour days. Second if your in a small town log your self off duty it takes the Qualcomm like 2 miles to switch back over learned that a driver did that in Indy and only had 5 min of drive time last log self off duty at every chane you get it'll save you hours
