Been off the logs for a while now. Was talking today and can't remember.

After you reset do you need to carry the last 7/8 days or just the reset and after?

Thanks

Just stopping in to ask a question? Busy busy!

A 10 hr reset clears your daily clocks, that's it.

34 hours off resets the whole enchilada, including the recap deal of 70 hours in 8 days. 34 hours off gets you tanned, rested, and ready to roll.

I'm not sure you answered his question, Errol. I believe he might be asking how long you have to maintain paper logs if your electronic logging machine fails.

If I'm remembering right, it's 7 days after your electronic logs are working again. But I'd hold onto them for 8, just to be sure.

I do not know if this is different from purely paper logging.

Electronic Logs:

Electronic Onboard Recorder

Electronic Logbook

A device which records the amount of time a vehicle has been driven. If the vehicle is not being driven, the operator will manually input whether or not he/she is on duty or not.

How you been my friend!? I run local now since last September. Average 12-16 hours a day and no log needed.

But we were talking today.

We have Saturday's and Sunday's off.

If we're to keep a log from Monday to Friday then we have Saturday and Sunday off.

Come Monday the only thing I need in my possession is Saturday Sunday and Monday? Or do I need From last Tuesday?

I thought it was only Saturday and Sunday showing my 34 hours off and then Monday or whatever day it is after... But a friend of mine was sayin Noooo. And now I'm wondering myself... Maybe I am wrong. But we are also 60 in 7 and he says were 70 in 8 but we don't work 7 days a week...

Who Must Complete a Log? Any person who is subject to the safety regulations and drives a commercial motor vehicle as defined in Section 390.5 of the Federal regulations must complete a logbook page for any day that includes commercial motor vehicle driving and for the prior 7 days (unless under an exception on some of those days).

Logbook:

A written or electronic record of a driver's duty status which must be maintained at all times. The driver records the amount of time spent driving, on-duty not driving, in the sleeper berth, or off duty. The enforcement of the Hours Of Service Rules (HOS) are based upon the entries put in a driver's logbook.

Commercial Motor Vehicle:

A commercial motor vehicle is any vehicle used in commerce to transport passengers or property with either:

  • A gross vehicle weight rating of 26,001 pounds or more
  • A gross combination weight rating of 26,001 pounds or more which includes a towed unit with a gross vehicle weight rating of more than 10,000 pounds
  • HOS:

    Hours Of Service

    HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.

I start and return to the same place everyday and stay within a 100 mile radius. My employer keeps track of our hours. And we don't work over 12 hours a day.

That last parts a lie ;)

But I think you did answer the question. The last 7 days. It doesn't show an exception for the amount of days just the amount of miles and hours =<12...

So on Monday it would be the last 7 days even though there was a reset on the weekend.

You must have the last 7 days plus the current day at all times, reset or not.

I thought it strange that you were asking about how long is a reset. Oh, I'm the one who's strange!

This is most probably a CYA situation. Saves a lot of discussion, <100 miles local, M-F gig and all, to have your logs from the past week handy, as all these other guys say. If you are in a CMV , the cop is going to ask for logs.

You might try the KeepTruckin app. Legal logs on your cellphone. The app can email the logs to the officer if needed, and you can edit previous day's work. 🙄

CMV:

Commercial Motor Vehicle

A CMV is a vehicle that is used as part of a business, is involved in interstate commerce, and may fit any of these descriptions:

  • Weighs 10,001 pounds or more
  • Has a gross vehicle weight rating or gross combination weight rating of 10,001 pounds or more
  • Is designed or used to transport 16 or more passengers (including the driver) not for compensation
  • Is designed or used to transport 9 or more passengers (including the driver) for compensation
  • Is transporting hazardous materials in a quantity requiring placards
