    So start the clock again on a day you weren't planning to and potentially kill a reset?

    Speaking of bull haulers, I have never seen the DOT bother TV network trucks, racing teams, or bull haulers. And every bull hauler I ever tallied to. Was an outlaw with a laced toothpick in his mouth. I beleave those guys run 14-18 hrs a day.

    Bull haulers: maybe twice a year I hear of a wreck because someone pulled out in front of them or something of that nature

    I swear you guys at like an hos violation is the end of the world! You think is on elogs don't get hos violations? Hell I has one 2 weeks ago that had me driving 27 minutes past my 14. Nothing happened, nothing happened when I had one at tmc that was 16 minutes passed my 11, and the very next week I had a level one at the scales south of troutville va. There's a difference between a violation and an egregious violation. You're taking a chance with either, and obviously you don't want to be repeatedly getting violations day after day. Just make sure you get a full 10 in after. It's not that hard.

    And to be honest, who would really have a family member come get them, if they are perfectly awake, perfectly healthy and DOT Certified? I mean really, we are human, we can handle another 100 miles, no problem.
