[QUOTE="pickup, post: 537919"] agree helen, the Original Poster's situation might be yours one day, details are exactly the same and you work for the same company. Like Orangputeh stated, this unfortunately is a grey area. As you also stated Helen, time behind the steering wheel driving counts in terms of counting time driving(I am out of my league here, but I assume even though you guys are driving non C.D.L vehicles, you are subject to intrastate d.o.t. hours of service rules) that does not necessarily mean the time is paid. There are many Over the road company tractor trailer drivers who are under loads and deviate sometimes 25 miles from the interstate( with the company's permission) to spend their time at home . The time spent driving those 50 miles( round trip) is part of their time driving for the d.o.t. log but is not compensated. As a matter of fact, I remember reading a D.O.T. interpretation of their rules which stated that while certain things have to be accounted for in terms of hours of service , whether that time is compensated or not is none of their concern.
