    I have two issues with e-logs. First I don't like big brother company looking over my shoulder. The second is that I don't like an over reliance on technology, my car still has crank windows. Other than those issues e-logs are fine.

    I like elogs, but your dispatcher has got to understand how they work too. If they still believe you can drive from Seattle to Los Angeles in one sitting your in for alot of fights....

    they are? when did this transition take place? oddly enough and just this past week,south carolina,and s.c. dot are indeed workaholics, checked my paperwork out as i pulled out of a shipper and failed to advise me that the loose leaf logs i am using were no longer valid.

    0-1 year of driving huh? imagine that.so did your "trainer" tell you this?
