Loading/Unloading (one more for the night)

[Double R]

OK, I don't get it. I log as little time as possible for everything I do. I rarely log(only flag) drop, then a little later hook. Same for being unloaded. Why would you log 1 minute more than you need to? My logs are up to date unless I know I need to back them up and I'm not going by any scales. Or at least ones that don't use Prepass. I have never been cited for log violations(knock on wood). Sometimes I log taking a break in a town that doesn't exist. I am certainly not going to run out of hours when I'm away from the house. I mean why would you be out here if you had to sit? I would never commit to a load if I knew i was going to be too tired to take it regardless of my hours, my company or the DOT. I have been driving 19 years and been with my current employer for 17+ years. I'm not promoting lawbreaking per se, but if you are courteous to people, people tend to be courteous in return. Do what you have to do, just do it in a safe, sane manner...........justbob

So what you are saying is that you lie on your logs. What a supertrucker you are! :P

[Doctor Who]

moderators are people too

Are you sure????

[justbob]

I'm certainly not a "supertrucker". I'm just making a living. I'm certain that you would never lie on your logs. Or maybe you can justify "fudging" on your logs, and convince yourself it's not lying. Until they start paying by the hour, everyone will lie on their logs, the extent may be different, but everyone will lie. Or are you the guy that will have to have his delivery time reset for Monday because you hit the 14 hour rule 47 miles before your destination. Ya, that's probably you. I heard you whining in the truckstop earlier about no miles, no money. At least you ran legal, and plus you'll probably get 75$ a night to sit the weekend. You ROCK! Hope you'll be able to cover the mobile home payment this month. Wait a minute, I know, you plan your trips so well that nothing ever delays you. HaHaHaHaHa.....Your kiddin' yourself!

I don't know about you guys, but I don't usually log everything the moment it happens. we wait for the "dust" to settle a little, then log it the way we should have done it!

dawn seems to have some merit as "entertaiment", but that's about it!

[wot i life]

Maybe some day you,ll have to exchange log books for these.
There can be no disputes with them and no falsifying records.

I don't use a log book. I am home EVERY NIGHT!!!!!!!! And when I was doing the regional routes that we have, I had no need to lie on a log book.

I say again, you are such a SUPERTRUCKER!

These digital tachographs are far harder to get around. They record 28 days driving and retain the information for 2 years(or so I,m told)....
The paddy,s will figure them out though :wink:

[ken_o]

dawn why dont you just listen to the more experienced drivers here, myself not included i always fill my log book out and hope for the best.
hell i cant even read my own handwriting half the time.

[ken_o]

We still have the old analogue tachographs, the new digi,s are set to replace them within Errrrmmm x amount of years.
Any new truck must have a digi fitted though.
Too many ways around the old charts and some drivers would .... Well, you and I both know Yoopr eh? :wink:

[ken_o]

if your tachograph is like the rest of your technology we will have it after you all have tested it out for a long while. we dont want your hammiedowns.

I don,t blame you mate. Maybe your D.O.T will wait and see how much revenue is generated for our equivalent first.
Thats the British way.... Oh, it pays well, we can hammer all the drivers, the public think we,re tackling transport issues, and its a nice little nest egg for us... :shock: Good show... :wink:
