Canadian news media is celebrating the arrival of the June 12 deadline for all commercial trucks traveling between Canadian provinces to be equipped with electronic logging devices. However, the reality for the Canadian trucking industry is that the impact of the June 12 deadline for ELD compliance was barely noticeable – hardly even qualifying as a “soft” deadline.
Canada ELD mandate deadline was June 12; won't be enforced
I've got a question:
If/when a Canadian driver crosses the border into the US, with NO ELD, is he legal because he is, in fact originating from Canada???
Interesting article, Dave W.

No. Must have an ELD because all the motor vehicle regulations must be followed wherever one is driving.
