Listen "ELDs giving wrong impression to operators about short-split pause value"
Episode Synopsis
Answers to several hours of service questions in this edition of the Overdrive Radio podcast, including:
1. Can I use a three-hour nap and not get penalized on it in the 14-hour rule?
2. How do you log a 20-load back and forth load/unload trip where there's scantly a mile between load/unload sites?
3. To use split sleeper, does it matter if the shorter period is longer than three hours? Is the pause value for the duty clock still there?
Also: a peculiarity of some ELDs that makes it seem as if the shorter of the sleeper/off-duty periods hasn't changed much at all when it comes to the ability to pause the 14-hour clock, and one provider's efforts to improve the split experience in their app.
Bonus: Several voices -- and plenty horns -- from 'That's a Big 10-4 on D.C.' on the National Mall October 2 in D.C.
