Those damn e-logs.

Yeah, for a 'real' trucker they could be a pain. I just switched jobs a few months ago, and I don't work enough in a day/week to worry about it. They just put them in our trucks about a month ago.
 
Most our runs are day trips, and we load and unload ourselves. Several times we will hour out about half-hour from home. With paper logs I can cheat a 1/4 hour here and there so I can make it to my own bed. With the new e-logs I don't see that being possible. The thing that I despise is the cameras. One watches the road, and the other watches the driver. We 'adjusted' the driver one though; It gets a good view of the passenger door.

Also, we don't drive every day. I'm curious to see how they record off-duty, and on-duty not driving.

On mine, same as the paper logs. If I haven't driven in 2 days (weekend) as soon as I log in it will ask if I want to create off duty logs for that time frame.
 
e logs can help out some drivers but .It's going to make big business a bunch of money

Welcome to Canada! Enjoy Winterpeg - erhm I mean Winnipeg.

Didn't read the whole thread but it looks like you've had some neat loads! I will say thanks for hauling **** all over the place. A lot of folks don't realize how much of a bind they would be in without semi trucks hauling all that **** they buy. But I do and I thank you.
