i've been working as a safety admin for the logbook for a while and seriously am gonna use your material for the training , thx bud , it was easy and simple , appreciate your efforts
Yes, they do have ELD solutions for semi trucks as well. The plugs and connections for semi trucks can be different, but there are ELD systems specifically designed to fit those configurations. Make sure to choose an ELD provider that offers options for semi trucks and ensures compatibility with your vehicle's system.
Great video, to make the pre trip a little easier you can go into your motive dashboard and make it mandatory to do a pre trip before going on duty, that’s how I have it set up I find it easier,
When your using your phone do you have to keep the app open or i can go off it and use other apps in my phone like gps or make calls or text messages etc ?
Your welcome. It doesn’t have to be connected to the internet but it’s highly recommended so that your back office, in any besides yourself can keep track of you.
What's up, Tim! I've been subscribed to your channel for a while now and I've learned a lot here. I had some experience as a hotshot driver in the past, but it didn't work out, but now I am about to return to it, been my brother's driver. He's starting a car hauling business. So, wish us luck! (Hahahaha!!!).
Man appreciate that continued support bro!! Good to hear your not completely quitting even after a failure. That’s how we learn and progress! Good luck to y’all out there and stay positive 💪🏽💯🫡
Wish the best for you. Honestly I’m about to quit myself just pushing a little more. I appreciate your comment on here. Gives me strength also. Good luck my dude.
Hey Fernando. Wishing you good luck for the business. If you need any help setting up motive ELD you can reach me out. I'm a product specialist here at Motive. Thanks
What do you do if you arrive at your shipper or receiver and run out of hours for the day. What status do u choose when they give you a door? How do u get offloaded or loaded when ur on ur 10 hour reset?
I would PC to the nearest safe place to stay but notate what happened. Typically that’s bad planning but if there’s no choice then that would be your only option and hope you don’t get a DOT officer that will trip about that but some may.
Is it possible to manually change duty status once you stop or do you have to wait until it automatically asks if i want to stay in driving? Getting on duty manually saves vital minutes traveling big yards
Yes, you can manually change your duty status once you stop, except for the driving status-you’ll need to wait for the system to automatically prompt you to switch out of driving mode. Switching statuses manually when you’re stopped can save you valuable time, so it’s a good practice to stay on top of your logs.
Alot of useful information. Still have questions I use this same vehicle for work and home and I work 3 weeks on 1 week off. On my week off do we still need to have eld connected. I have forgotten to update my status and have gone into violations.
Glad you found the info helpful! Two ways I do it when Im home and used to run my other truck. I'll either go off duty and go into personal conveyance when moving around town, you just have to remember to go back off duty break when your done. Or ill just go off duty and unplug the eld while home. Ill do that if I'm staying within 125 miles of my home base.
Getting ready to start my trucking non CDL. I’m confused on the whole plate situation. I need to register my plates and vehicles registration to say 26000lbs or under ?
I appreciate the video bro. You're my main go to when I wanna learn something about hotshot trucking. Working the ELD isn't something I thought about yet so I really appreciate you bringing it to my attention. Be safe my man
Great video and explanation... I'm setting up my hotshot setup for myself and I'll be ready to roll by the end of this year.... I'm using a 2007 E-450 and I'm hoping that this device will work...I'm currently rebuilding a 24' old gooseneck... I know my equipment is used and old but for now it's a start and paid for.... I will be upgrading my equipment as $$$ allows me to... In these hard times I don't want to get into this business in debt with a new truck and trailer...
Great video, bruh, and very good explanations. I’m new with the vehicles that require the ELD use so.. very helpful. Subscription and like. Thank you and be safe!
Hey man quick question. Do you leave the eld plugged in when truck is off? If so does it run the batteries down? Also does your iPad have cellular data? Appreciate it!
I liked keep trucking. The back office functions and IFTA tracking was awesome. So many back office functions and reports for the owner/op. Tax help proof for OTR to get per diem also.
⚠️WARNING: Motive software is not compliant with HOS law and falsely violates drivers that take qualifying rest periods and not recognizing the pausing of their HOS clocks

@@HotshotMacc I don’t have the Logs button that everyone else at work does. I’m on the same screen and they have it but I don’t. That’s for iPhone and Android apps I don’t have the Blue Log button
You will need to contact Motive so they can send you the actual device. I should have a link in my description to get with the person I dealt with. Just let them know I sent you 🫡
Glad it helped out bro! But I think what I meant was try to get it fixed so you don’t have have to mark the defect at all once it’s fixed. My bad for the confusion 💪🏽💯
Did motive say with the camera that's the only way to track harsh breaking fast acceleration and speeding?? That's what motive told me today but my insurance don't require dual facing camera
The camera is not needed to track anything. You can have it track and report those things to the insurance without the camera. But it may depend on your insurance company
Hope all is well….. I’m a cdl driver and I’m going to be doing OTR soon so I was wondering if you you have cellular service on your iPad for the ELD or are you using wifi and a hotspot?
I really thought that you was going to show how to install the app on the cellphone. That's actually my problem. I'm trying to use my cellphone as my back up. Motive is installed, but won't show the graph at all, it won't even let me accept the part that says ELD & transportation authority regulations. So what step I'm missing for completing the app installation? Anyone knows?
I believe it’s the same process as the iPad bro. I started out using my phone then went to the iPad. Maybe give Motive a call so they can walk you through the process. Would be hard to explain here.
What's up Hotshot Macc thanks for the video! I'm just about to launch my hotshot business hopefully next week. This is still a little confusing for me. I haven't installed my ELD just yet. Maybe once I get it on and paired with my tablet I'll prolly figure it out.
I need help please. I can login to my account just fine, but how do I get the Blue “LOG” square to appear? I don’t have that so I can’t change my duty status. When I had the Keep Truckin app at my old job it was soo much easier. I’m just lost now and I can’t do any longer runs with my current job without this app working. Any help is appreciated thanks.
I’m not sure how to explain this and understand the issue this way bro. My apologies. Maybe visit our website and book a free discovery call to see how we can help you more.
By contacting the company. I have a link in my description for Motive if you’d like to het in touch with someone. ELDs are usually mailed after signing up.

Awesome bro glad it helped! Stay safe out there!
Thank You. I have had mines for 6 months and never connected the device. Will actually install Sunday. Thanks for the video my dude.
Glad it helped brotha!
Do they have that plug for semi trucks? Because semi trucks are different plug-in do they have that set up as well?

Make sure to choose an ELD provider that offers options for semi trucks and ensures compatibility with your vehicle's system.
Great video, to make the pre trip a little easier you can go into your motive dashboard and make it mandatory to do a pre trip before going on duty, that’s how I have it set up I find it easier,
Didn’t know that man, definitely appreciate that tip bro!
Im looking at mine now, im not seeing that setting??
This video couldnt be more helpful! Awesome job! Im definitely going to get this ! Great video!
Glad I could help!
You just don’t know how much I needed this video
That’s why I do it bro, to hear responses like this one. Glad it helped bro 🫡💪🏽💯
my man listened and delivered! thank you boss!
I try to brotha! Appreciate the support 💪🏽💯
Does this device have harsh breaking fast acceleration and speeding? Insurance requires me to have all that
Yes it does. Which insurance is requiring you to have that. They should be giving you a discount to report that to the insurance.
Thank you bro! Just ordered my Motive ELD Thursday. You always hit it out the park! Bless up
No doubt bro! Appreciate the support man 💪🏽💯
Where do you order from?
I had a hat like yours! I appreciate links in description. Legit !
Aye that’s whats up! Glad it helps fam 🫡💯
When your using your phone do you have to keep the app open or i can go off it and use other apps in my phone like gps or make calls or text messages etc ?
You can use other apps
Is it possible for eld to drain your battery over night? My battery died twice in a row since I hooked up eld.
Id get that checked out. I’ve never had a battery die bc of that and my eld stays plugged in.
thank you. QUESTION: Does it cover CANADIAN rules ?
I am not sure Canadian rules but I am sure you can contact them directly and they will would be able to help you.
We don’t run Canada lanes

"You're welcome! I'm really glad to hear that my video is helping you as you start your driving journey.
So which app do you use. I see they have 2. A fleet and a driver
I use the driver app
Boom. Was just gonna ask this same question.
How did you do this all on the driver app?
What do you do if you arrive at your shipper or receiver and run out of hours for the day. What status do u choose when they give you a door? How do u get offloaded or loaded when ur on ur 10 hour reset?
I would PC to the nearest safe place to stay but notate what happened. Typically that’s bad planning but if there’s no choice then that would be your only option and hope you don’t get a DOT officer that will trip about that but some may.
Bro great video on the eld. Keep the videos dropping my guy.
Appreciate that my guy! Now go get you Motive! 🤣🤣
What do you do when you’re fueling up?
Go on duty and put fueling in the notes.
Is it possible to manually change duty status once you stop or do you have to wait until it automatically asks if i want to stay in driving? Getting on duty manually saves vital minutes traveling big yards

Do you need a internet connection on iPad for using this with motive ELD

Are you using an adapter or does it have the correct plug for your vehicle?
It has the correct plug, I just plugged it straight in out the box
How do you get to the page that shows your hours? I did my pre trip and everything now what?
Go back home and hit logs. Top right will have an icon that brings you to the hours.

Check out our website for a discount on Motive ELDs. We’ve got a lot of helpful resources there as well! www.macctransportandlogistics.com
Can the drive line be edited???
I don’t believe so
does you eld track you by the sec by minutes, or does it work like in 15 min increments like my keep trucking phone app does but mine is not a eld
I believe it tracks by the second bro
How much do you pay every month for the service? thanks
I believe we pay $130 each quarter
