eldmandate on 23 May 18The much-discussed ELog Mandate was declared by the FMCSA in order to introduce a smoother, safer and faster method of tracking and recording the Hours of Duty Status of truckers. In the previous paper logbook method, accuracy in the documentation could not always be expected since the logbook could be easily altered or a mistake could happen while filling it out. Hence, the ELog Mandate made it mandatory for all fleet operators to install an electronic logging device in their vehicles which had to be implemented by December 18, 2017. However, the time limit to comply with this rule had been extended to 1stApril, 2018. One can still abide by this mandate within December 16, 2019 if an AOBRD was purchased in advance of Dec 18, 2017. Here is how an electronic logging device protects your commercial fleet.
