DDL (Drivers Daily log)

DDL--How do you erase the back up log files. When I change a few things it ask me to use current or backup files. If I wanted to use the backup I wouldn't have changed it.
I'm not asking any opinions on rewriting logs. So please keep that to yourself.

And I could care less why you want to do it. That's your business.

I love DDL. Pulled into the Maryland scale on I-68 a couple of days ago and they were checking logs. When he asked for mine I stated that I used DDL he said "Thank you, have a good day" and sent me down the road. He didn't even ask to look at the print-outs or the computer.

Just curious if DOT in various parts of the country have warmed up to DDL.

I've been inspected 4 or 5 times since I started running DDL. The only time I've ever been questioned about it was during a DOT training session at the scalehouse. They were mainly just interested in how it works.

All times are GMT. The time now is 08:23 PM.
