no engine doesn't shut off they simply pull over in the mile stretch they ran out of time in that's why you see them parked on off ramps or in random areas

You can actually go over the 11 hours, can't remember how much over, but you will definitely have to take all or part of the next day off until you are back in compliance with your hours, I'mnotquitesure howthat rule works becausei neverhad to face it, althoughif Iwas 20 minutesfrom the terminal, Ijust continuedto drive their, but that was 5 years ago before the company had all trucks hooked up to full electronic capabilities where everything was electronically logged.

I've never seen a truck that shuts down when time uns out. if that's what happened, she needs to find another job.

on e logs you can go to settings and pick add speakers then hit apply it will take five minutes to reboot so drive like hell if you don't make it stop before it reboots and do it again . I made it across Salt Lake city doing this.

this does 100% happen to trains, which is why you see them stopped in random places.

My little brother is a truck driver so I do know this. So drivers usually get 11 hours a day to drive with two 30 minute breaks. They are limited to the time and sometimes the truck will stop when the time hits. It didn鈥檛 get but I think she was worried about being the rules. Because of many drivers literally dying before the union was formed they take the rules seriously. I think they should have waking breaks more often but what do I know lol.

it's where you can only drive for so long in one time and you can't go over a certain speed or even drive at all when you run out of time and it doesn't kill the motor

you only have to take a 30 minute every 8 hours not 2 in 11 . if you run out of time just miles from your home terminal you can legally use personal conveyance to get to a safe haven.

this truck is connected to DOT logging automatically...if that truck is not at a complete stop when your 11th hr comes up it's a DOT violation...the company i worked for had a 4 violation limit for being fired

No the engine does not turn off some times I have drove my whole 11 hours with out taking a 30 minute break been like what happened you have to take a 30 minute break before 8 hours best to have 4 hours driven then you get all ya clock to run out that鈥檚 11 hours of Driving with a 30 minute break per day 7 days a week when you have used up your 70 hours of driving you have to take 34 hours off if you only drive 8 hours a day you can run on recaps hours and all most never have to take a day off as long as you got recap hours

14 hr workday, 10 hrs of drive time, 1 30 min. break inside the first 8 hrs. the truck doesn't shut down for running over your drive time, at which time you are in violation. your dispatch has some legal wiggle room on their end, because of how freaking unsafe it is to pull over just anywhere.

the stupidest part is if you run out of drive time 6mins before destination you can't continue however you can dive 30mins back to find a stop
