OOIDA

OOIDA (Owner Operators Independent Drivers Association) is the only lobbyists truckers have in Washington DC. They support drivers. They go to bat for us, even on local levels, and against trucking companies who screw drivers. Please support them. I think there membership is only $45 a year, and they send you the LandLine magazine which is packed full of great info, comments, and stories.

As you may have heard, they did not vote in September on the e-logs.  Supposedly they will vote in October, which will bring the 2-year compliance date up to October 2017.

One great thing I read today, published by Matt Cole at Overdrive is that FMCSA agrees that the driver should be able to amend e-logs prior to submitting them.  This new action will be effective whenever the compliance date  comes about.

If you want to help at all, please consider subscribing to OOIDA.  They are our only lobbyists in Washington.  Membership is $45 per YEAR, and includes a subscription to the Land Line magazine.  Do your part.  Get involved.

Don't forget to contact your state's senators about the 30 minute break. It really sucks.
