But Greg is correct - the logbook violation is not going to result in a murder charge - the fact that the driver killed someone will result in the murder charge.


Dawn's claim is the same as claiming that someone who runs someone over in the middle of the street, and they find out the person was speeding. The fact that they were speeding does not make or break the murder charge, just as the logbook violation does not make or break the vehicular homicide case.
I guess if it isn't spelled out in the book, you just can't get it! The trooper said it, DOT says it, but you just don't get it! That is what I mean about copy & paste, that is all you know! I guess read the papers call the DOT yourself and ask the proper question! :lol:

And that is where you do not understand. The trooper DID NOT say it, and neither does DOT.

So if a person jumps from a 50 story building, is it the jumping off the building going to kill them or is the fall from the 50 story building?

(e) Failure to complete the record of duty activities of this section or §395.15, failure to preserve a record of such duty activities, or making of false reports in connection with such duty activities shall make the driver and/or the carrier liable to PROSECUTION. Yes I made that in all caps!

And the will be prosecuted for the HOS violation, nothing more than that which relates to the HOS.

Nope - you have it wrong. If you violate the HOS rules, you will be tried for murder. Dawn said so, and you should "trust" her. :wink:
