    So what you’re saying is that if I speed I immediately need to take at least 6 months off??

    I’m gonna let my wife know but I’m not to sure she will believe me
    Especially if I tell her the internet guy said so but I’m still going to give it a shot!!

    I imagine it also depends what kinda speeding. if they see you managed to do detroit to laredo in the span of almost 18 hours and get nailed by a dot on the i-30 in arkansas you're probably going to have some explaining to do to account for an average speed of more then 85mph

    Back in ole good paper log time i was busted by trooper for 6 hours drive distance made in 4 hours.
    He gave me to choose HOS or SPEEDING. I choose HOS it was cheaper

    And a "missing" log book used to be cheaper than a HOS violation.

    All you old guys surely remember how the troopers in Kansas would stop you for 62 or 63 and if you were in halfway decent shape, just write you a "RODS not current" logbook warning instead of a speeding ticket.

    Showed his boss he was working and gave us a break.
