[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 1750098, member: 8481"] And just to clarify, you still cannot work more than 60 hours. Your breaks do not count as working time when calculating DOT hours of service. This means that you can be paid for more than 60 hours, but you are not working more than 60 hours. Another issue is that drivers are getting fired for violating hours of service. DOT regulations state that you cannot drive after being on duty for 8 hours without taking a 30 minute rest period. Drivers are keying in their meal and then working, hooking sets, unhooking, etc. Mileage drivers do this because they are paid by the mile, not by the hour. If you work through your meal, or 5 minutes of your meal, you have not satisfied the 30 minute rest period and are in violation of hours of service once you reach 8 hours of on duty time and keep driving.
