    There was a recent do called upgrade. Now when you move forward after fueling or pull awayfrom the dock to close your doors the eld will go to driving

    If youdont set it back to off duty when you go inside the truck stop to get your fuel bill all that time will register as driving. Your carrier can no longer edit any drive time.

    If you are using peoplenet, use the Status button from a standstill to change to "ON YM", and enter a note of fuel or whatever. Should stay on that status until you reach 20mph.

    This is a brand specific thing, so naming the brand would be helpful.
    The regulations state it can be configurable up the 5MPH, nothing there has changed.

    depending on the brand of equipment, you may need to use 'granny gear' and just putt-putt away from the fuel island, or around the yard.

    ELD will go into driving mode when you hit 8km/hr or 5mi/hr. just stay under those and you'll be fine
