Hey got it.

So the next time I get called into a scale, I will tell the scale master that this is my best case scenario, in theory.

In a real world application, you're hard pressed to find anyone stupid enough to drive that many hours, thinking they can legally do so. :roll:

Maybe just a copy of the honey do list would work. lol. Home is off duty in the log book, no way around it. Unless you're still sleeping in the truck.

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.

ok, there are 24 hours in 24 period so the maximum number of hours you could drive in a 24 period would be 24.. I didnt say maximum allowed, I said maximum possible. Okay, Rev, let's see you dispute that

It depends what day of the year it is. On March 9 of this year, there are only 23 hours in the day, and on November 2nd, there are 25 hours. So there. :P

Ask Rev and Steve Booth. They've had some enlightened discussions on the subject.

ok, question here.

I do a 15 min fuel/pre-trip drive for the day then do a "quick" post-trip.

I log 15 minutes in the morning, but since i do a quick one at night, i only flag it (ie 7 minutes or less) legal?

my understanding is if it's 7 minutes or less you can flag, over 7 minutes you need to log to the nearest 15 minutes / 1/2 hr.

when i started driving, everything i did was eating up my hrs, then someone told me about flagging and saved me a ton of time ( when needed )

There is no rule that says anything about more or less than 7 minutes, that's a lunch counter myth. You can actually flag anything that takes less than 15 minutes.

Rev.Vassago 01-29-2008 02:47 AM

Correct. Anything less than 15 minutes can be flagged.
