[QUOTE="budlight, post: 2515503, member: 60619"] Say I shift for 10 hours. I can't go on a 2 hour run from home base, drop my trailers, hook up and drive 2 hours home. Why? Because I would be over 14 hours. And I would still need 10 hours off before being able to report back to work. I asked my dispatch this exact scenario the other day. I said, Say for instance I worked 16 hours in the yard, would I still need 10 hours off before coming back to work? Dispatch said, well, you can't work 16 hours, but yes, you'd still need your 10 off. Does your ivis not tell you how many hours of on duty time and hours of drive time you have available? Shift for 10 hours, get told we need you to go to such and such location, go off other work, log into tractor, it says you have 4 hours OD and 4 hours DT remaining. Can you ignore that and drive for 6 hours with your total on duty time at 17.5? And then show up the next day at your regular start time? No. You can't. Even if you strictly shifted, not leaving the yard, you can't go over 14 and not get your required 10 off. Shifters where I am have CDLs. [/QUOTE]
