    When my uncle was driving my aunt took me to I 80 and from there went west, first to Reno. This was back in 1973, the summer and I was gone for 2 weeks. That was a great experience. He kept the truck cold! At that time he had a Kenworth cabover. He used to pop pills to stay awake and pills to put him asleep. Coming back home he was sound asleep at the wheel but he stayed in his own lane and never hit anyone. Thank heavens! He stopped for fuel and took a short nap, then back on the road. I got out and my aunt took me home and he went on to Chicago to deliver. I was actually 2 days late getting back to my job but my dad covered for me.

    I had that problem with my ELD too. I had to clear some of old apps that were running in the back ground and it was having charging issues. I had to let completely die and then charge it back up and for some reason it wasn’t updating from the main server I had to call IT and have them fix that. Good luck!

    It's good to show that your ELD doesn't work that you have to write it by hand. it is not possible in Denmark. and if there is an error, i.e. work management time is not correct, the man can be fined for up to 5 years after the misreading. and it's down to a misdemeanor of up to 2 minutes, which can result in a fine
