[yuriy]

Hey guys, I am wondering about current DOT LOG BOOK rules and regulations..like how much you can sleep, drive.. record where you stopped for fuel, if more then 100 gallons you record it in the log, if less you don't..

is there like a website anywhere that could explain everything to me? please help me out..im sure there is a site.

thanks i just want to see current regulations and stuff..never actually seen them before(learned from other drivers )

Never heard of any "green" book lol..I've been driving myself for a while, and have not seen any "green" book.

Yes, these are Federal rules/laws...unless you are exempted...sometimes state governments will exempt some drivers like gas/diesel tankers...disaster relief..etc.

It's the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations Pocketbook. It's standard.
