    Another batch of eld snowflakes

    Get over it. It's not about the eld any more. It's about running illegal how an individual wants and not complying with the regulation. Fudging the log book is nothing but a political correct term for running illegal...

    Newbie with ELD and Logbook Questions

    Thanks for reading this. I got my Class A in January.

    Solution to replace ELD

    I will like to start with the fact that from my opinion limiting/restricting/enforcing someone how much we can work, or to go to sleep, etc it's same like communism. How to perform competition or to be competitive when we are killed with this stupid ELD. My solution will be that, we live in time...
