No, if you aren't physically pushing the buttons, you are resting. You don't need to take 10 hours off before you can drive again either. Wait an hour, drive and hour. Wait an hour, drive an hour.

I think I screwed up taking this load. I have 919 miles to go and it has to be there by 3:59pm tomorrow. I'm at 10fp's, so out of time for right now. I have surgery in the morning, so there goes me for the biggest part of the day.
At least it *should* only cost me $50 for being late.

Leave instructions with your doctor on what to do, for money you're paying him he shouldn't mind.

Yeah, Twilight Flyer, like Rev said, you have to click, the "next leg" link. Be sure to watch the fatigue meter. 1 is good, and 10 is bad. Some have gone higher, but I stop at 10. :lol:
Do some reading on it, and you'll pick it up.
It's a piece of cake. If I can do this, I know you can. :| :P

Well, my first load of mail was for $.65 per mile, Dallas to NYC. But my online time is limited at home with a large family and I can't/won't dink around on it during work.
So, since I am a guy and don't read instructions, someone clue me in really quick on how exactly my truck travels down that virtual highway.
