My current company just has the one place to sign that the entries are true and correct. I complete that at the end of the day. I have had a number of level 1 and 3 inspections, and couple traffic stops :-( with this company; officer never said a thing about my not having signed it.

Guess I'll jump in also.
Danske and I worked for the same small outfit. We were told to not place our signature on log book to certify the entries. There was another location on the page in the inspection part that we were told to sign.
The reasoning was that DOT requires a signature to be on each log page but it doesn't say where it has to be. If you sign under the log to certify it, then you could be held to that log entry and not be able to change it.
By signing the inspection form and not completeing the inspection section until the end of your day you were fine.
hope it helps to add to the argument...:smokin:
