[QUOTE="Buffet Master, post: 5131295, member: 86736"] I think we are talking about 2 different things under the same general topic. If you are a DOT registered operation, you must be Federally registered as a 60 hour 7 day operation or a 70 hour 8 day operation. The hours and days are irrelevant pertaining to the company operations itself. Trucking is 24/7, 365. Where it matters is to a driver that fills out a log book, whether paper or electronic. It has to do with recapping of hours. I don't know if you RPCD guys log? But what it means is as a driver under 60/7 that you can only work 60 hours in a 7 day period, you do not gain hours back until 12:01 of the 8th day. The hours gained back are the hours from day one of the duty cycle. This of course is if you do not have a 34 hour restart, which is not mandatory to do as a lot of guys think it is. It did not exist prior to '02 or' 03. In theory you can work 8.75 hours a day indefinitely and never run out of hours. [/QUOTE]
