The regs state that if you use the split sleeper you must have 8 consecutive hours in the sleeper berth followed by an additional 2 consecutive hour break at some point during your shift.
No, that is not what the regs state at all. They state that a split sleeper berth must be a
combination of a break that is greater than 2 hours, and a break that is greater than 8 hours. It does not state in which order the breaks need to be taken.

By your reasoning, a driver could have a 10 hour break, drive 11 hours, take a 2 hour break, drive 10 more hours and then take his 8 hour sleeper and be in compliance.
No, that is not what I stated at all. I do contend, however, that a driver can have a 10 hour break, drive 11 hours, take a 2 hour break, be
on duty, not drivingfor 30 minutes (for the DOT roadside stop), take an additional 8 hour break, and be in compliance for driving 11 hours.

Nowhere in the original poster's question was there anything about the driver who was in the bunk needing to drive.

I suggest you go back and read what I posted before, and then go back an read the regulations again. All of them including the FAQ's and the interpretations.
I have read them. Have you?
