[QUOTE="cachsux, post: 1368745, member: 5529"] Despite what might be said it's the drivers responsibility to keep track of their hours. We had a new driver just recently check his logbook on a Monday. His calculations showed he had 9 hours available (he gets bounced around week to week because he's new). When he punches in the system shows he had 60 hrs available. He goes to an onroad sup and points out the discrepancy. The sup, qualified as a CDL trainer and certifier, goes into the computer and agrees that the system not the driver is correct and tells the driver to work as needed. On wed the driver is called up to the office because he has violated each day since Monday. He points out to mgmt that he had gotten approval from them to work. Blame falls on sup. following week sup tries to write up driver. Union and mgmt kick sup in ass. BUT the moral is the DRIVER needs to know his hours for sure and stand his ground when he's write.
