How to fill out a log book for truck drivers: Complete guide and walkthrough

Hours of Service compliance is essential for truck drivers, and log books help maintain it. Learn all about filling out a paper log book and why it’s important with this comprehensive walkthrough by Schneider Driver Instructor Henry Frautschy.
Remember, this video is just an example of how to fill out a paper log book. It is not a real-life scenario.
Paper logs are only to be used when a driver’s Electronic Logging Device (ELD) is not functioning. Truck drivers are required to have a backup plan to record their Hours of Service (HOS) manually. In the event of an ELD malfunction, drivers should switch to a paper log book until the ELD is repaired or replaced. Drivers should keep a minimum of eight days of paper logs with them at all times.

My grandpa used to drive for you guys before he passed, every time I see one of your trucks, I just think of him. My dad and I would always call out a Schneider Trailer or Truck and when doing so we think of him

Excellent basic and clear explanation of a critical skill for truck drivers today. Even though a majority of drivers operate with an ELD, the key to effectively using those devices is a good understanding of how to complete a log book. Thanks for sharing!
