The OP reminded me of something in his post.
At work, we have that voicemail thingy. You call in, like you are gonna talk to someone, but you hit the # key, and then you punch in your driver ext., and password to listen to voicemessages from our Supervisors, etc..
Well, the other day, one of our supervisors left a message about using Black ink pens on log books. He said that we cant use Red, or Green, or any other color other than Black, or Blue.
My guess is that someone was using a multi colored pen. :lol: :lol:

Dont forget the line to put the co drivers name.
Hope this helps, better yet hope Im right or we are both sol.

Total miles Driven is how many miles you drove today. You do not put your co-drivers miles on this line, only your miles.
Total Mileage is how many miles the truck went today....Which is the total of your miles and your team mates miles.
Beyond that, just make sure that you and your team mates logs match. Where he ends the day is where you need to begin the day (location). Log it as you do it and you won't have any problems.
Finally each of you are responsible for your own logs. You can not be fined for errors on his log.

Here are some "base-line" rules:
1. A team driver, when the vehicle is in motion can only be either "driving" on line 3 or in the "sleeper berth" on line 2.
2. The above applies..UNLESS the non-driving driver is on line 4 "on-duty, not driving". If the non-driving driver is on line 4...he or she is using up available hours because line 4 hours are used against the 70.
3. Both drivers logs must coincide. If not, someone may be in violation. This is concerning when the vehicle is in motion. Not so when the vehicle is stationary.
4. Current FMCSR's do not permit a team driver to log "off-duty" (line 1) while the vehicle is in motion.
I might suggest that you get with someone in your safety department, or another team....to get the right and proper information to log. Mistakes are expensive as in $$$.

The DOT and Safety depts. love that. For one month I used red, green, black, blue, pink, and purple on my log book. Every day was a different color. Happened to get inspected that month too. The DOT officer laughed and gave me a 100% on my level one and told me to have a good day . The safety dept. on the other hand was not amused .

It is my understanding that you must use the same color of ink for that particular logbook, on each page. If you wish to use a different color ink in the next log book that is ok. However, your employer may require that you only use black (or whatever color he/she wishes).

I've been out of the industry for some time now, but I never heard of such a rule. In the time that I ran OTR, I it was never an issue.

Don't confuse company policy for federal regulations...

I think it's in a subsection related to the federal Marshall guidelines.
