So you are not ignored around here! I do not know of what companies do use the on board computers, although I do know a computer program that you can use on your own personal computer to fill out your log sheets on. Most companies are accepting them now and are great for drivers to us. Check it out
Driversdailylog.com
It will tell you when your 11 & 14 hour is up, it will tell you when your 70 hour is up (it does the re-cap for you). It is nice. You need a computer, printer, ink & paper. Check it out, most companies are accepting it any more.
No I don't get a profit; although I should since I sell @ least 2 a week for them! I suggest it for the fact to help the driver out!
Dawn I would agree Driver Daily Log is a good program. I used it for years. That being said the majority of companies do not accept them. Mainly for two reasons. (1) They have pre-printed log forms. and (2) Many have custom log scanning software that Driver Daily Log does not support. It is still a good program that you can use and then transfer the results to a paper log however.

KC all the company needs to do is send them a log sheet and I believe maybe signing a form stating they allow Driversdailylog to post it for drivers use on their website.
I use JJ Keller scan software and it works better with them (as long as they use the company print out form)
I also know anyone using the Rair system; they allow the logs (as long as they use the company print out form)
Also Rapid accepts them!
I was going to give you the link to the companys that accept them, but it seems their website is having issue's (uh oh/ scary, but that happens)
Go to their website and look for where it says companies that accept DDL and you can see the list, it is pretty long! You can also use it regardless if they accept them or not and just copy from the computer to your log @ least it gives you the math answers! We accept them and I never sent anything out stating we do, just word of mouth if we have talked with them
