    I just thought of something. You mentioned on Friday that you had a Monday morning stop 210 miles away. I got more than my fair share of pick up Thursday and deliver Monday 150 - 250 miles away. Made me less than happy.

    Me too. I picked this up in Arcadia Wisconsin. It's 1100 mile trip. I needed to stop to get my 34 reset or this coming week would be touch and go on my recap. Drove 625 miles on this LD yesterday with 40 mins left to legally drive. So I didn't wanna push my luck.lol

    I left that truck stop in Toledo, WA this evening... 22:00 central time... as soon as I regained my 70... :yes2557:
    It started snowing in the morning...:biggrin_2552:

    Temp has been in the 30's all day.... there was about one inch of snow on the ground... and traffic was really slow... all the way from Portland, OR to mm 80 on I-5 WA... Slow trucks on the right lane with flashers on... and folks going at 25 mph...
    But there was only slush on the road.... no ice... So I stayed on the left lane and kept moving...
    The snow stopped once I passed Centralia, WA and the roads got better too...:biggrin_25519:
    Now I am parked in my receiver's parking lot... Will deliver at 8:00 local time...
    And will call DSP as soon as they arrive in the office and ask them to post me out with brokers so I can get out of this place as soon as possible... There are more storms heading this way... frozen rain, snow... It's going to be nasty... :biggrin_2552:

    I'll have my 70 back here in about 25 mins. Then I'm heading out too. Be careful my friend. Rock n roll.

    Oh goody. The first day of the first full week in 2016. Since getting a recap app on my phone I don't reset anymore. I get plenty of time.
    But then I'm local. They make me log anyway.
     
    Rocks Thanks this.

    I know my comment is a little too late... but just read your posting... Maybe you have already figured out what happened...
    In any case, check all your screens... the graphic/grid screen... once that happened to me because I forgot to change my status... or made some mistake... If you can't find anything wrong... call someone in your company who works with your logs... if you are company driver, and they may be able to help.. Or maybe there's a problem with the device itself...

    I don't have that but I think it's some app you can use to log your hrs and it calculates everything for you... Is that right, Mr. Dave?
