Information required to be displayed on an AOBRD

§395.15 Automatic on-board recording devices.   

Guidance Q&A

Question 5: What information is required to be displayed on the AOBRD?

Guidance: (1) Section 395.15(i)(5) requires that AOBRDs with electronic displays must be capable of displaying the following: ‘‘(i) Driver’s total hours of driving today; (ii) The total hours on duty today; (iii) Total miles driving today; (iv) Total hours on duty for the 7 consecutive day period, including today; (v) Total hours on duty for the prior 8 consecutive day period, including the present day; and (vi) The sequential changes in duty status and the times the changes occurred for each driver using the device.’’

(2) While § 395.15(c) requires additional information be recorded by the AOBRD, only the specific information listed in § 395.15(i)(5) must be displayed.

(3) The two provisions differ because of the data display limitations of a minimally compliant AOBRD.
