[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 1242252, member: 42554"] I think the confusion arises between when the DOT cares if you are working or driving. DOT does not want you [I]working[/I] (performing [I]any[/I] work which includes having to babysit a trailer) during your 1/2 hour mandated rest break during your first 8 hours; any other time given to you by the Employer as a break and/or meal; and during your 10 hours off between shift and 34 hours off if you are resetting. DOT does not want you [I]driving[/I] after 11 hours in a 14/16 hour day, or after 60/70 hours in a 7/8 day period without a 34 hour reset. So as in some of the above examples, if the center manager or someone else takes over driving you are still working (not resting) but cannot drive again until the required rest periods are met. You can still work all you want you just can't legally drive. [/QUOTE]
