I HAVE otoh, been guilty of running two log books and my friend at one time ran three.
Long hours has always been, as far as I have ever known, the driver's decision.
Certainly there was a complicit dispatcher, but the driver was in it to make money and you don't make money sitting idly, wide awake, just because a peice of paper says so.
Aren’t there companies that put pressue (perhaps financial pressure) on trucker to work many hrs at time to keep schedule?
Only Townhall would print this garbage by some type of Big Trucking lobbyist because they dont get to cheat on log books like they used to. Now they cant claim they rested as the law requires when really they kept driving for greed and profit. This dirtbag representing dirtbag truck drivers should be held personally responsible for every 18 wheeler accident, of which there is one daily, and for all the death and injury caused by these slimeball trucks.
