[QUOTE="Well-Known Member, post: 6033670, member: 85066"] I know the DOT HOS. If you have 34 hours off, that restarts your 7/8 day period. In your earlier post, you said 60 hours in 7 days or 70 hours in 8 days and then a 34 hour reset. You then asked when was the reset. But, you do not need a reset unless you already maxed out your hours. You can work 7 days a week if you want as long as you keep track of your rolling hours and don't exceed 60 hours in 7 rolling days or 70 hours in 8 rolling days. With helpers, PVD's and SSD's, some drivers in some areas are only getting 8 hours a day. If you only work 8 hours a day, you can work 7 days a week and never need, or take, a reset. But, most drivers only work 6 days a week. There is no Sunday delivery yet. This basically gives you a reset for that one day off so you don't have to worry about keeping track of when your hours fall off giving you more hours to work that day under the 60/70 hour rule. Feeders however, is far different. Feeders run 7 days a week. It is not uncommon for a feeder driver to work, keeping track of rolling hours, without taking a 34 hour reset. [/QUOTE]
