    I'm kinda 'stumped' on the 'reasoning' to this post. Sounds like a 'fine day' IMHO. Am I missing the 'moral of the story' here, guys?!?!?!? :(

    What did YOU glean from this, @Grumppy ?!?!?!? ;) @Badmon ?!?!?!? :)

    The fine for going over on HOS is $200.00.
    You can pay this fine online now due to the current Covid-19 condition.

    Text HOS fines to 888-767-1357 to get a link to my paypal account. It takes all forms of payments.

    I've gone over probably 3-4 times this past year alone. Longest was 1 hour & 30 minutes, but I didn't give a #### because I was 1 hour & 30 minutes from home, in which I was taking my 2 week vacation. Never had to pay anything for HOS violations though because the few times I was pulled over for inspection my logs were good.

    Looks like you are starting to catch on. Now keep your foot off the dash while you are driving.
