    Dare I say it? I think in the next 5-10 years all trucks out here hauling freight will have 2 additional things: (1) paperless logs and (2) {this is what I dred saying} "black boxes".

    Good thing I'll be retired by then (I hope).

    Ironic that they (government/Company's ) want to do everything they can to micromanage the driver and discourage productivity. Yet want to pay you in a way that requires micromanagement and promotes productivity.

    Would most anyone feel pressured to log illegal or not follow the law, If how you got paid did not encourage it? I doubt it. I don't anymore. Every hour I put in a truck, I get paid for. Want safety? That's the easiest way to achieve it. Speculative driver pay does not promote safety
