    Now when I was in school we had 4 or 5 folks in a truck at once. Thats way different. I thank god it was winter when I went to school cause those trucks dint have any AC. They barely had heat lol

    Gotta make sure someone can run those last 2hrs & 2 minutes of everyday! (presuming the other two drivers stop at 10:59 hrs and perform a Chinese fire drill).

    Bunks have legal restraints to use. They just aren't designed to be used safely while sitting.

    You can log 2 hours off duty as long as you have 8 hours straight in the bunk. More than 2 or no 8, and it's on duty, like you said.

    my first company we had 2 trainees per trainer. me and the other trainee slept in the bunks, trainer slept in hotels. switched days, like i drove monday, other drove tues... but later heard from someone that was illegal, since no seatbelt for third person, but idk for sure. I know in school they had actual seats instead of bunks
