Has anyone heard of this? I have asked if you didn't need a log book to cross state lines, and was told no because Logging is exempt because it comes out of the woods in the natural state and is not changed or processed until you unload it.
Longest haul one way is 120 miles, starts in AL, then GA and TN, and return.

The 150 miles is only for NON-CDL drivers: So if you do not need a CDL to haul the logs then yes it is 150 mile radius. If you need a CDL to haul logs then if you go outside 100 mile radius you will need to fill out log sheets.
Drivers of property-carrying CMVs which
do not require a Commercial Driver's License for operation and who operate within a 150 air-mile radius of their normal work reporting location:
May drive a maximum of 11 hours after coming on duty following 10 or more consecutive hours off duty.
Are not required to keep records-of-duty status (RODS).
May not drive after the 14th hour after coming on duty 5 days a week or after the 16th hour after coming on duty 2 days a week.
Employer must:
Maintain and retain accurate time records for a period of 6 months showing the time the duty period began, ended, and total hours on duty each day in place of RODS.
