I have never had a problem making deliveries one after another on time and without speeding everywhere. But I do feel I should be able to sleep when I'm tired and not be forced  to waste hours on a 14-hour that doesn't stop."}

What I mean by that is every time that they are in a traffic jam for two hours they only get paid the mile they covered, or at a shipper for four hours they have to only get two hours pay for detention. The ELD actually proves how much work a driver does every day, and all company drivers should demand to be paid for all work that they are doing. We’ve been taught to cheat our logs in order to save time to drive. That only benefits the carrier, because they are only willing to pay us by the mile. Any of you that have been falsely logging duty status due to not being paid for the time that you work, you need to get an attorney and file for all the hours you’ve sat at a shipper/receiver, in traffic, at a weigh station, or any other non driving but working time. That also includes safety meetings, and other company required visits. Even when you’re broke down you are still working!! The ELD proves ALL TIME WORKED!!!!
