Yes, 2 drivers can share the same ELD in a legal and efficient way. When drivers take shifts on the same vehicle, all they need to do is connect to the ELD with their credentials at the beginning of their driving session. This keeps the Hours of Service (HOS) data current for each driver so that it is possible to distinguish between shifts.
TruckX’s ELD solution seamlessly enables this cross-shift functionality, allowing drivers to move from shift to shift with no loss of data integrity. All driver’s hours, breaks, and duty status reports are synced on an individual basis so fleet managers can effortlessly track and stay in line with FMCSA standards. Moreover, the device can support multiple logins and securely store data for each driver, meaning that log entries are not subject to errors.
For drivers, this shared ELD setup simplifies compliance and reduces paperwork by automatically tracking HOS and ensuring data accuracy during driver handoffs. The TruckX ELD application is intuitive so drivers can login and log out in seconds, saving time between shifts. Because of TruckX’s trusted customer support, truck drivers and fleet managers have 24/7 support to fix anything that goes wrong.
