Timer definitions
2.1 Rest In (1)
Rest in = time until next required OFF DUTY Break which will be 4.5 hours from
the time driver performs a Master Log In (On Duty Not Driving). State Law
(Appendix A) or Company Policies may default to different time. Once the
required break has been taken, the Rest In time will default to Duty left
time. State Law (Appendix A) or Company Policies may default to different
time.
2.2 Driving Left (2)
Driving Left = 11 hours of total “driving” in a 14 hour period. This will be a
count down from the time the driver performs a Master Log IN (On Duty Not
Driving) minus total “Driving” time throughout their 14 hour period.
2.3 Duty Left (3)
Duty Left = 14 hour shift for our CDL drivers which means they cannot “drive”
past your 14th hour on duty. This will be a count down from the time the
driver performs a Master Log IN to the set time 14 hours later. State Law
(Appendix A) or Company Policies may default to different time.
2.4 Cycle Left (4)
4 | 27
ELD HOS APP
CENTRAL TRANSPORT LLC VERSION 1.4.5 and higher
Once a driver reaches 70 hours in 8 days they cannot “drive” until they
either have a 34 hour reset, or they go back under 70 total hours for a
rolling 8 day period. This will be a count down from the saved On Duty hours,
for the current work week up to current time counting down from the driver’s
set weekly schedule time. Once they have been off 34 consecutive hours, the
Cycle time will be reset.
a. The 34 hour reset is not mandatory, but you cannot “drive” after being
on-duty for 70 total hours in a rolling 8 days…..(that includes dock time).
b. Once every 7 days Drivers can use the 16-hour Exception and extend their
14 hour duty period out to 16 hours. That’s only once in 7 days, and they
still cannot drive more than a total of 11 hours that day! (An example of
that would be someone that drove 10 hours, worked the dock for 5 (on-duty for
15 hours), and then had 1 hour left of driving to get home).
2.5 Current Status Time Left (5)
Will be either the count down until they can go On Duty (Master Log In) or
once On Duty the amount of time they have left before taking a break aka 30
minute lunch (1) and if taken lunch would be Driving left.(2)
2.6 HOS Duty Status Buttons
