FMCSA-ELD-395-Q070(2022-03-10)

Question: How can yard moves be reflected on the electronic logging device (ELD)?

Guidance: The ELD must provide an option to preconfigure drivers’ accounts with yard moves. Should the motor carrier opt to preconfigure a driver’s account with yard moves, the driver must select the beginning and end of the yard move period. The graph-grid must overlay periods of driver’s indications of yard moves using a different style line (such as dashed or dotted line) or shading. The appropriate abbreviation must also be indicated on the graph-grid.
