True, but for many of us an 8.75 hour a day average is not reality. And we don't want it to be either. I reset at home each week. When not at home I like to run hard instead of sitting around the truck stop for hours. If I get get home before midnight every friday there wouldn't be an issue but sometimes it's not until Saturday. It's not hard to get back on track though with a little shorter week the next time. If the 34 hour reset rule goes through as proposed that wouldn't work out too well. I can see the reasoning behind only being able to reset once a week, but like most things HOS related it needs some flexibility as it will likely mean less time at home for me and a schedule that is further from anything that could be called regular.

Other than that I see no issues for my situation.

Frankly, I see no reason to fret over anything at this point....this issue is like the "never-ending story"...it may as well be on a continuous loop.... I'm not going to worry at all about the issue until such time as I see the final rule cut, then I will just do what I am required to do.

Not going to lose any sleep over it.....nope.
