11-Hour Rule This driver accumulated 10 hours of off-duty time by combining 10 consecutive hours alternating between the sleeper berth and off duty. As long as the time is consecutive and not broken by any driving or other on-duty time, this is a valid way to obtain off-duty time.
11-Hour Rule Here, the driver accumulated 10 hours of off duty, combining sleeper-berth and off-duty times, but the off-duty period was not consecutive because the driver drove for 1 hour starting at 9:00 a.m. Therefore, the driver was in violation of the rules when he drove for 2 hours beyond the 11-hour limit. The driver was also in violation of the 14-hour rule at 4:00 p.m.
14-Hour Rule For this driver, the 14-hour clock started running when he or she went on duty at 4:00 a.m., and ended at 6:00 p.m. (14 consecutive hours later). The driver was not eligible to drive again until after a 10 hour break.
14-Hour Rule This driver has used a combination of consecutive off-duty and sleeper-berth time to accumulate the required 10 hours off duty and reset the 14-hour clock. The 14-hour clock for this driver restarted at 2:00 p.m., so there is no violation.
