Team log book location requirement

You put the location he starts Driving. When you start driving you have put you have co driver on logs. If you got stopped they will know their are two drives on the truck. It doesn't matter who drives first. You drive your time and switch,co driver fill out his logs and put what town and state he starts Driving. He has to show you as co driver on his logs. If he get stopped they will see it's a team truck and that how the truck and load is moving 1,000 miles a day.

Out west I hear they could time trucks between weight station MT OR WA UT if they see a truck moving non stop. They would ask driver to bring in log book. Once they see you team they said ok, have a good day.

 

You put the location of the change in duty status. Any time status is changed, it's the nearest town from where you are currently at.

 

You put location where you start driving he put location where he got in truck as sleeper. Then his location driving should be the same location you went in to sleeper.

 

Many ELOGS locate duty status change as geo coordinates or tower coordinates.

 

Which would make it an illegal ELD as even the ELD law specifically states closest town. Now what could be, is it puts the geo coords and the town, but the town requirement is written into the regs.

 

Yes nearest town name is in record but with coordinates where in town. It's would be great if we can put just NYC or LA. Ha-ha we did it on paper.

 

Wherever duty status changes.
