69151 发表于 2020-10-15 03:19:53 The 14 hour clock is the most egregious part of the HOS rules. it makes drivers more aggressive causing more accidents than ever. The mandated 30 minute lunch break is also ridiculous. Without the 14 hr clock, we could stop and eat or nap when we're needed it. All of these rules seem to be made to work us harder. We don't dare stop for anything because we might run out of hours. I feel like I'm chained to the steering wheel.\n I was looking for the 7/3 split..It's not on Omnitracs yet.

{"replyTo":"","text":"Sorry. This is nothing to me. Dump the ridiculous \"14 Rule.\" Shipper's/Receiver's/Broker's don't care one bit about how long they keep us waiting for a dock or in dock. Detention time payment is a joke. I do not need anyone to tell me when I'm tired. For guys like me (24 years) this is worthless. I used to love to take a 5 hour snooze and drive for 5. I was never fatigued. I pretty much stay within a 300 mile radius of my home base. If you're close to any big metropolis the 14 hour rule can really hurt you worse than long haul. Tight windows, traffic, Broker's/Shipper's/Receiver's not concerned with our time. It all comes down to what we should've done years ago. Every trucker take 5 days off. Bring this country to it's knees! Otherwise, your all just wasting my time SMH 🤬...","replyToPid":0}
