I now run the same route 5 nights a week and am home from about 0200-1500 hrs.
this is where the question comes in. I am logging this time on line 1 off duty. An other driver said thats wrong(I know I shouldn't listen but now worry about it) he said it should be logged on line 2 or I need a hotel reciept for DOT. I start logging and end at the same time and same location so it's evident that I must be home.

Line 1 - Off Duty

If you're at home why would you need a hotel receipt? There is nothing that says your off duty time has to be spent in a hotel.

(h)(1) Off duty. Except for time spent resting in a sleeper berth, a continuous line shall be drawn between the appropriate time markers to record the period(s) of time when the driver is not on duty, is not required to be in readiness to work, or is not under any responsibility for performing work.

I'm sure that same driver thinks you need white sheets, and DOT can give you a citation if your bed isn't made. :lol:

While you logging "gurus" are "on duty" (not driving) I hope!,,,,,

I have a quick question.

What is the maximum number of hours allowed for driving during a 24 hour period?

I know it sounds like a basic premise of HOS, but I just recently realized it isn't.

you can be on duty for 14 hours out if which you can drive for 11 hours, then you must have 10 hours rest, so the maximum time you could drive during a 24 hour period would be 11 hours
