no log book?...is this possible?....

when i worked for coke..we had to fill out a "driver exempt log book". it just had hours logged in and out. in the back of book, had a few pages of graph logs just in case wwe qworked longer that 12 hours.

 

you still need to fill out a daily time off and time on sheet, if your truck is not fitted with a comtrack system.

you still need to fill out a log to make sure you dont break the 14hour rule total of working in a day rememebr you can have only 150-200 miles to drive but its how long your in truck and how many stops you need to account for as well.

 

I understand the 100 mile rule but what does the 100/150 mean?

 

i never had to either i ve been working local for the past 12 years and never did so in my time at all. now with this new company im with they have a CSA accountability crap that has me filling out a daily log for everytime i get in and off of truck.

 

if you work under 100 miles. then NO you don't need a log book.

you only need time sheets.

however, if you work over 12 hours. then yes you need to go a log graph. and you only have 14 hours max per day.

since your under the 100 miles. that also classifies you as a local boy. (being home every night) working 60/7. NOT 70/8

my brother in law DOES do logs though. but they aren't paid by the hour. they are paid by the load.
he hauls oil to the refinery. and does one load per day.

 

Not hard to find.

Look at the short haul
