Logging your time: records of duty status and electronic logging devices

Chapter 7 set the limits. This chapter is the proof — the record that shows you kept them, who has to keep it electronically, what the device records whether you touch it or not, and what to do the day it fails.

In this chapter

  • What a record of duty status has to show, who certifies it, and how long it lives
  • Who is inside the electronic logging device rule and where paper records still survive
  • What you owe the device each day — and what happens the moment it stops working
