For most loads out there, you don’t need to use it. This rule has gotten more confusing with the latest change, so give your driver manager (DM) a call whenever you think you might need it, so that you use it correctly. There are also several videos on YouTube explaining the latest 7-8 hr sleeper split.\n\nAlso, taking a 10-hr break is the most efficient use of your elogs versus the 7-8 hr sleeper split. So don’t use it because you’ll get more driving hours in the long run because you will not. "}
