I believe that’s why my CDL school always recommends to use the paper log even though digital logs are standardized. I’m using it everyday I attend school. Hopefully I can show this to an instructor as a good example
@@silentagony1019 Yeah I highly recommend using it because it can definitely save you in the long run. They didn’t teach us how to use paper logs in school I had to teach myself but best believe I’ll be using it for now on. But definitely show this video as a learning lesson.
Nah you don’t have to use it daily just because of some dude in school said so just learn it and use it when the ELD starts malfunctioning that’s the only time you need to use Log books also remember the instructors at most these schools lie about experience just to earn respect from students but we all know they’re full of 💩 they just want your money.
You did get CSA points. Look up online on how long they stay with you. Those do affect your chances of being hired elsewhere as they follow you and all the drivers affect the fleet's score. It's an accountability system and actually pretty decent, it gives us drivers legs to stand on and to demand that we comply with all laws. If terminated because you were forced to violate the law, there is recourse for that because we are subject to getting points.
Facts, I was gonna say something similar. I been trucking for 10 years now, and in the beginning I used to fall for it when the State Troopers say “It’s not gonna affect you and all you have to do is sign here.” I used to think it wasn’t a big deal and that it’s nothing. But one thing I learned is that, the little tiny things can get you in trouble, which is so stupid to me, even now. That ABS light is bullshit too. I remember back in 2014 when I started, I was taught bad habits from drivers running out of a Wal Mart DC😁! Wal Mart has so much power, that they purposely overloaded loads in Reefer Units if no scales are open around the same region to deliver to the Wal Mart stores. Somehow word got out or maybe someone got caught, that DOT set up a portable scale in front of the Wal Mart DC😁! But the loads were all magically in legal weight that they couldn’t pop anyone.
Companies will check your csa score when hiring....the violations that you recieved may be appealed...sounds like the issues with your ELD was not intentional on your part...takes 3 years for the points to fall of but the violations will always show up when compaines check your CSA report....try to see if you can appeal the violations with DOT.
@@rogerg0834 I certify every time and my log looks fine but once I log back on it shows my on duty as drive time and my drive time as on duty, the trooper even noticed it, my ELD was broken and had a malfunctioning problem.
your safety guy could have fixed those errors from their end if you had seen it. I have that happen atleast 1 time a week with my rigs. It will happen again so keep an eye as you start to drive to make sure it changes duty status. Be safe young man.
Have your company send a Data Q. It may reverse at least the logging violation. They will have to try and prove it, but there’s a good chance it can be reversed.
@@buddy1976 it ain’t just about the glitch. The whole ELD monitor itself is broken. It fell off my dash two weeks ago and it’s been malfunctioning ever since but when I go to certify it’s normal so I didn’t realize it was flipping on duty with the driving until I got my inspection that’s how I found out.
Are you a local driver star go to another company and as far your CVR points your company should have a safety classes you drive a day cab so you should be local and if you don't drive over a 100 air miles thats how they determine it I pulled containers for three years in Los Angeles no logs needed so I could go any where that was less then 100 miles from my terminal thats local in California you want to work for a company that has good equipment tractor and trailers . I don't know where you drive but if you are going through a scale and its a port of intrey they looking for a reason to pull you in . And if your company has a bad safety record this will get you pulled in if there other trucks are dirty and the up keep is bad try to find a company that has it own repair where you can go and tell them what's wrong with your truck that you drive Roehl they have good equipment and benefits to take care and be safe its good you keep your truck clean the windows the mirrors and your dash DOT can be very picky be safe oh yea Im a retired driver 26 yrs OTR Owner operator .
10 years driving in the Northeast, and accident free, knock on wood💪🏻😄! Philly, George Washington Bridge, New Jersey, etc. It’s all just city driving in the highways. For those not used to city driving, it’s a nightmare.

Thanks God you didn't get points against your CLD license.keep trucking.
Rockies are hilarious
You live and learn .. that’s what life is all about keep grinding
@@Fearless-ex4iv Yes sir💯💪🏾
I worked for a company really similar to yours and when i quit was the best decision i ever made!
@@Handfulofhandsomeness I feel you, I know I’ll feel the same too because it ain’t hittin like it use to lol
Great job keeping your mindset positive.
@@aaronlopez8237 Will do🫡
I got a violation for not having a blank log book back in March. It happens to the best of us.

@@ad-jj3yv Yup going to look into appealing them asap, thanks for the info
Thanks for the info
No problem 👍
I bet that you never told your boss that you broke the log device
It's crazy how you got your first inspection today and I got my license today
October 22 is crazy
@@kovugg3311 Congratulations 🎉
""""EAT. THAT"""!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤪
This is the purpose of certifying your logs! Each day, you should review that log and confirm its accuracy.
@@rogerg0834 I certify every time and my log looks fine but once I log back on it shows my on duty as drive time and my drive time as on duty, the trooper even noticed it, my ELD was broken and had a malfunctioning problem.
He said he did and it wasn’t the same as the officer was showing him. So he doesn’t k ow when it decided to flip.

@@fighter4christ7 thanks for the recommendation. I’m a definitely have my boss look into it then.
The screen tells you what status you’re on you should be able to see it
It’s on your psp report homie. It will fall off in 2 or 3 years
@@albundy615 I’m hearing mixed info. Someone else said it will always appear on the report.
Damn that sucks man
@@9to5jackson Yeah man
CSA points. They stay with you for 3 years. That sucks
@@rogerg0834 it does suck but I’ll be alright
@@rogerg0834 The website says 24months but that shit is still to long
@@rydewithty good to know. I was always told 3 years. At least it's less.
@@rogerg0834 Yeah it’s still a grip but it is what it is
Question well if there was a glitch, how was your time able to reset itself everyday ... 🤔
