- Short haul exemption extended to 150 air-miles
- Remember this is 150 air-miles and not miles on your truck
- 150 air-miles is from the Terminal address
- Previously short haul exemption was 100 air miles
- Adverse driving conditions exemption allows 2 hours of extra driving and extends Shift time by 2 hours as well
- Important to note that extending shift to 16 hours by Adverse Driving Exemption does not increase 70 hours cycle time. 34 hours break is still required after 8 days 70 hours cycle
- Only applies when there is Unexpected situations. Like unexpected snowfall, or unexpected traffic or delays due to accident
- You cannot take exemption due to January snowfall in Michigan, for example. It has to be something you would have not known about before starting your trip
- 30 minutes break required can be On Duty as well
- No need to show 30 mins break in Off Duty all the time
- Combination of 15 mins On Duty and 15 Mins Off Duty break also counts
- Split sleeper is modified from 8 + 2 to 7 + 3. This allows 10 hours to be split in 7 hours sleeper and 3 hours off duty
- You can still split 10 hours reset into 8 hours in Sleeper and 2 Off Duty
- Remember minimum 7 hours has to be in Sleeper Berth Only
- Both 7 and 3 hours are not calculated in the 14-hour window. This saves a lot of time on the logbook ✌️
