I've heard you have a 75 mile radius around your base to haul without a log book. Is this correct? If so, what do I need to put in the log book on the days I'm running locally? Thanks, Phillip

It is 100 miles unless your state has a different rule for intrastate.

In order to not use a log book you must have some sort of time record kept at the office of the hours worked. Also just because you are not using a log book you are still subject to the hours of service. Also you must report back to your work reporting location at the end of the day.

As far as using a log book one day and not the next, on the days you do not use a log book just write in local work in the remarks section and log the time worked on line 4.

Yes, 100 mile radius as long as you start and end your workday at the same location.

I am sure that our so called " log expert " will be along to give wrong info about this. Stay tuned.

The 150 air mile radius is for NON CDL holders.

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:

Actually, the other driver at the company who's CDL was grandfathered in said 75miles. A good friend of mine said 150miles. I wasn't sure who to believe.

Guess it's 150. -Phillip
