I heard about that incident. I wonder how they explained that one to their respective dispatchers. The e-log has no mercy.

Wouldn't the e-log show them as stopped? Just need a note from Mom Mr Policeman.

When free parking is made available, don't you take advantage of it?

Wonder how it went in the log?

Down time? Or driving time?

You're not driving, but you're on the road.

Technically, the time would be logged on Line 4, On Duty Not Driving.

Any interaction with police, DOT or emergency services must be logged that way. And the fourteen hour clock keeps running nonstop unless you log a minimum of eight hours in the sleeper berth.

This will likely qualify under the Adverse Driving Conditions rule, which allows for up to two hours additional driving time due to unforeseen events which could not be reasonably be predicted at the start of the day.

The split break rules are not well understood and caused many violations in the paper log days. Elogs have eliminated this.

Learn about split breaks here, if you are interested.

Bet Pam don't see this every day:

PAW PAW, Mich. — Ben Carpenter got the ride of a lifetime when his electric wheelchair became lodged in the grille of a semitrailer and was accidentally pushed down a highway for several miles at about 50 mph.

I remember that, it was like 10 years ago wasn't it?

Well, it was in that day's headlines, but, you are correct.

I remembered it, too, but, thought it had happened again.

My apologies.

Apologies for what? Still an interesting story. :confused:

Kinda like me, now.

I turned 50:thepain: the other day.

Old, but, still interesting.:crone:

Welcome to the Golden Years. :thumb2:

You still will never be a Golden Girl.

I knew Betty White. Sir, you will never be a Betty White.

God I hope I don't live that long.

What? You don't want to do Saturday Night Live? Assuming it lives that long.
