Hours of Service Readiness: From Regulation to Real-World Compliance
Wednesday, July 22, 2026
11:00 AM Eastern
1 hour
Drivers submit false logs for various reasons, including logging mistakes, pressure to meet delivery deadlines, attempts to conceal excess hours, or the desire to get home sooner. Identifying and correcting these inaccuracies is critical to maintaining compliance and preventing repeat issues.
The most effective tools for addressing false logs are thorough log auditing and a strong hours-of-service (HOS) policy. Log auditing goes far beyond retaining records for six months. It requires a detailed review of drivers’ records of duty status using the reporting capabilities within your ELD or paper log system.
During this webcast, our panel will discuss:
- The hours-of-service and record of duty status regulations (ELDs, paper logs, and time records)
- Effective auditing practices
- Tracking and adjusting to trends found in auditing and in the industry
- This webcast will also feature a private fleet, who will share insights into developing and implementing effective policies and procedures, as well as strengthening management controls to prevent log violations.
