Notification of Upcoming Change to Prohibit Editing Hos Drive Time

 In response to guidance from the FMCSA, DriverTech is introducing an update to the way driving detected statuses are managed within the FleetWatcher portal.

  • Managers are no longer be able to edit automatically recorded drive and the Driving statuses will be grayed out when the status has been selected for editing.
  • Managers will retain the ability to add or change a remark that has been entered to provide details for driving statuses that are created erroneously. Enforcement inspectors are trained to watch for and take into account these remarks when auditing a driver's log. 

These changes will be made active soon. ** Watch this space for updates; we will give at least a two week notice **

Please review the following guidance from FMCSA and contact support if you have questions about these changes.

Roadside Audit Enforcement View

If a DOT Officer asks you if you can show your screen outside of your cab, the answer is yes!
You can use any smart device’s screen (cell phone, tablet, laptop) as your ELD display screen, via Enforcement View, so that it can be visible outside of the cab.

  • From your main HOS screen, go to Options, Enforcement View, and then “Learn how to send logs to a mobile device that can be handed to enforcement”
  • Follow the on-screen instructions and the smart device is now your ELD display screen.

NOTE: This is for DT4000 Rev 7 devices ONLY and employs the same concept as a BYOD provider in that the driver can use any smart device (smart phone, laptop, tablet) as the Driver’s ELD Display Screen.
What is different about the DriverTech Advanced solutions, DT4000 or DT1000, that you have is we also supply a screen in the cab to directly communicate with the ELD software.
