Question:
Driving as Defined via Vehicle Performance and HOS
Answer:
This is how it is currently handled for Vehicle Performance and Driver Information:
- Vehicle is deemed to be driving after it has been at rest and vehicle has moved a 1/2 mile.
- A vehicle is deemed not driving if either the vehicle is not moving (i.e. speed is 0) for over 5 minutes, or the engine is turned off (RPM is 0) for a period of 4 seconds.
This is how it is currently handled for HOS:
- Vehicle is deemed to be driving after it has been at rest and vehicle has moved the distance specified as 'Minimum Drive Distance' in the Web Portal (defaults to 1/10th mile).
- A vehicle is deemed not driving if the vehicle is not moving (i.e. speed is 0) for over 5 minutes.
