Default DDL

Guys, listen to Dawn. She is 100% correct. This is a truckers best friend...or at least second best friend. They just recently added a GPS module that is also pretty slick.

If paper size is an issue, cut your log down to the standard size. Problem fixed. As for the printer...$70 will buy a pretty decent printer/scanner combination so you can scan all your receipts and keep them as backup. Not to mention all your trip docs.

If you accepted the fines you would deserve them! Most DOT officers love the program and when they find out you are using the DDL they tend to make sure your last duty status is up to date and let you go! Saves you time on the DOT stop :lol:

Question 28: May a driver use a computer to generate his or her record of duty status (log book) and then manually sign the computer printouts in lieu of handwritten logs?
Guidance: A driver may use a computer to generate the graph grid and entries for the record of duty status or log book, provided the computer-generated output includes the minimum information required by §395.8 and is formatted in accordance with the rules. In addition, the driver must. Be capable of printing the record of duty status for the current 24-hour period at the request of an enforcement officer. Print the record of duty status at the end of each 24-hour period, and sign it in his or her handwriting to certify that all entries required by this section are true and correct. Maintain a copy of printed and signed records of duty status for the previous 7 consecutive days and make it available for inspection at the request of an enforcement officer.

Again drivers he just seems to believe everything I say and do is wrong. I don't care for such people :roll:

Once again, you fail to comprehend SARCASM.

Please cite some sort of reference to back this up.

No I don't. I only figure you're wrong about 70-75% of the time. But look on the bright side - that means you're RIGHT 25-30% of the time!
