Unladen does NOT mean bobtail. It means "not under a bill of lading" and per the regs/guidance as Uturn quoted them, has nothing to do with whether or not a trailer is attached. |

So, what YOU are saying is that the ON DUTY reg applies to an O/O (on his own hometime) while servicing his truck.... but NOT the alcohol carrying prohibition? Cuz.... that is what the FMCSA guidance says. Quote:

Obviously, subpara (3) "driving time" does not apply to any PART of your break time at home or on the road if you can log off duty while driving home. Why then, would you need to log line 3 if you wanted to drive your own truck to the grocery store OR to have it serviced? Besides.... note that Scott didn't say HE was servicing the truck. He said he TOOK it to be serviced. And.... if (as I claim and have shown) subpara (3) is subordinate to the topic sentence criteria, then so would subpara (2) AND subpara (4) and all others. If not.... then once you got home, you would not even be able to enter your truck (or stand on the catwalk) for ANY reason during your 34 hour break without busting it. You can't clean it out. Can't take it to be painted or washed. Can't work on the generator. Nothing! Almost forgot. You red-lettered subpara (8) in your post. By YOUR definition, this would include billing your customers and doing your "books" or filing your taxes. How about cashing your checks at the bank? Oh.... and don't BE on the load boards looking for a load during your 34 hour break! Now... if YOU think that makes any sense, I submit that you are the LAST and ONLY one on this forum who DOES. Let's see if this makes sense: You return to your terminal and are ROD'd for your 34 hour break. You can drive 8 hours or whatever to get to your home.... OFF DUTY. This time counts toward your 34 hour restart. Now... you GET home and are no longer driving (the part the guidance clearly exempts,) and you need to UNLOAD your dirty laundry. Ooops! You are ON THE TRUCK and not driving... and not resting in the sleeper! By god.... the Rev says you must log this time as line 4!! Start your 34 hour restart ALL OVER AGAIN! :hellno::roll: Your contentions defy ALL logic, Rev! EVEN that of the FMCSA. :eek2: |
Hmmm....alot of legal talk for a 2 1/2 hour trip..
My question is, as long as your driving a commercial vehicle, with a trailer, and your going 170 miles, why wouldn't you log it in your logbook? It's only 2 1/2 hours....unless you are going to be out of hours by that time, I would go ahead and log it. After you take a 34 hour restart, it's not going to matter. You start over again at 0. I don't suggest running at all without logging it in your logbook. Not in a CMV. And that would go for anytime you're on the road. To me, I just don't see the sense in doing so. :bigthumbsup::bigthumbsup: |

At least now I know that all I have to do is sit back, and you'll contradict yourself and post the regs that prove you wrong. Thanks golfhobo!!!!:thumbsup::rofl: |
