Training question

You cannot run this person as if you were a team operation if that's what you're wondering. Every mile that they drive you will be sitting in the passenger seat supervising and logging as on duty not driving.

 

So Im thinking all your time is on-duty. You should even show the PTI's on your log as well as his. He can drive the 11 hours with the required break and such...

 

I have trained people with permits ive always made them do a full inspection anytime they get in the seat and as a trainer you shoul also log the inspection as onduty not driving with a note on your log saying training it gives you a record and will help the trainee learn

 

As already mentioned, your time spent in the passenger seat while the trainee is driving is logged line 4. Any other time gets logged according to what it is.

No one has to "show PTIs." You log such events as on-duty, but there is no FMCSA requirement to identify them beyond the location (per information posted below). Your company may require additional information.

Question 23: When the driver’s duty status changes, do §§395.8(c) or 395.8(h)(5) require a description of on-duty not driving activities (“fueling,” “pre-trip,” “loading,” “unloading,”, etc.) in the remarks section in addition to the name of the nearest city, town or village followed by the State abbreviation?

Guidance: No. Many motor carriers require drivers to identify work performed during a change of duty status. Part 395 neither requires nor prohibits this practice.

You're a trainer and you don't know how to do the lawbooks? Good Lord were in worse shape than I thought!
