I have already purchased one for a local truck stop. Another question: I myself work as an Marketing director (estimator) for asphalt maintenance. I also am part of the Sheriff's Dept. Reserve organization and work considerable hours on the road. Then you add personal driving. So here it is what do I have to log? Note: Reserve officers do not receive compensation. Thanks Rick Eric,

Instead, you can record your time by showing a driver’s time started, time finished, and the total number of hours for the day. This can be a time sheet, time clock, or any other type of document which has the time started, time finished, and total number of hours for the day.

What type of logs do we need to keep for our records; I do not see this infomation anywhere. Does it make a difference if we are not pulling our trailers? Without the trailer 3-vehicles do not require DOT (under 10,001#). Thank You Rick Weidig WEP Asphalt We are non-cdl drivers and mostly work within the 100 mile radius.
