Since the trucking industry switched over to ELDs (Electronic Logging Devices) companies, especially the smaller operations, have begun to acquire these devices and relay logs that help to determine a driver’s compliance with Hours of Service (HOS) rules. While it is important for all parties involved in trucking that a certain amount of oversight is in place and that everyone is in compliance, the new devices have caused roadblocks such as switching out hardware, drivers pushing back, and the additional financial burden associated with the latest piece of technology in the trucking industry.

Technical glitches are a common issue, with ELDs sometimes failing to record data accurately or integrating poorly with existing fleet management systems. This can lead to discrepancies in HOS records and potential compliance violations. Additionally, some drivers may resist using ELD, finding them intrusive or cumbersome, which can result in decreased morale and productivity.

Our ELDs are easy to use with intuitive interfaces to reduce driver pushback and the likelihood of technical problems. We also provide comprehensive live support and training so fleets can maintain compliance without wasting valuable productivity. By choosing TruckX, fleets can navigate the complexities of ELD implementation with confidence, ensuring compliance, boosting efficiency, and reducing operational costs.
