HELP I DON"T UNDERSTAND HOW TO DO THIS!!!!

Can sombody tell me how to figure this out, the correct answer is 14 hour clock: 5 hrs and 11 hour clock: 4 hours. For the life of me I do not understand how,

How many on duty hours are remaining after the following has been logged (use a scratch sheet of paper if you need to): On duty/not driving: 3 hours Driving: 4 hours Sleeper berth: 8 hours Driving: 7 hours Off duty: 2 hours

14 hour clock: 5 hours 11 hour clock: 4 hours

There is no time remaining on the drivers 11 or 14 hour clocks

14 hour clock: 7 hours 11 hour clock: 6 hours

Both the 11 and 14 hour limits have reset so all hours are now available

This looks like the split sleeper birth. However I'm not sure where they got the 5 hours from, the 4 hours of drivet8ime should be all that remain. In a split sleeper after 8 consecutive hours in the sleeper you can drive the remainder of you 11 then tak 2 hours off duty of a combination of off duty/sleeper birth and gain the rest back. IE: I drove for 5 hours, went into sleeper fo 8 I now have 6 hours to drive then I rest for 2 and I now can drive 5 hours. However to my knowledge when running a split sleepr you no longer run on a 14 hour clock. So if you have 5 hours that's all you have. The only way to get your 11/14 back is to do a 10 hour.

Okay! they touched on logs, but thats about it. We was supose to learn on the road. Its like gibberish. I hope I get this. I am scared now. Got scared and lost my big girl undies somewere in the beginning.

It really isn't as hard as it seems pebbles I promise. Most companies don't let you run split sleepers however its good info to know. I promise you'll be a "pro" in no time.

This question was in the High Road Training series and I understood the example, but this has completly left me clueless! I'm with you Pebbles, I have no idea how to do this! YIKES

Hmmmm I really don't know then but I assure you Kathy it will all get easier!

If your company has Qualcoms, you should also have elogs. But, like anything they can go out, so you need to know this, so if your elogs go out, you need to know how to keep the proper paper logs. When i went through orientation with my company, they gave us a class in just that. When I did the high road series, I had a lot of trouble with keeping the logs too, but as I continued on, with the way the review process works, it began to click, and then when I went through the class in orientation, the couple of issues I still had, just clicked into place. Be patient and keep working. I found part of my problem, was i was making it more complicated than it is.

Kathy, Was the correct answer given as part of your TT study guide?? As I figured it, you have NO hours left on your HOS. The reason I say this is because During split sleeper rules, you can't be "Off duty" you HAVE to be in "Sleeper berth" for the rule to apply, so by taking the last two houra "Off duty" you have invalidated the split sleeper provision, so your sleeper berth time does not count. Not only that you broke your HOS rules, by driving past your 14 hour on duty limit. The veterans on here my chide in and correct me, but I think the subtle thing to remember here is the "OffD" vs "SB" times..

This apparently is one of the new HOS rules that the DOT is attempting to address with their new regulations. It allows you to use a combination of "off duty" AND "SB" to fulfill your split SB obligation.

Cant you just drive through maybe have a few small breaks in between instead of splitting your sleeper births?

Remember, to reset your 14 hour clock, you HAVE to be in SB for 10 hours total. Off duty is NOT the same as sleeper berth..the only way to break up your 10 total is with the 8/2 SB provision..and don't forget, once you have 8 hours, either with or without driving, you are required to take a 30 minute break before you can drive again...a lot to remember, I know, but if you go over those HOS study guidelines in the High Road, you will understand it a lot better..
