Drivers of commercial motor vehicles in the United States must abide by federal Hours of Service (HOS) regulations. These regulations have been established for the protection of the truck drivers themselves as well as other travelers. HOS rules are necessary to ensure that they spend enough time resting so that they are protected. One provision in HOS regulations is that anyone driving a commercial vehicle keep a log in their vehicle. In the log, drivers must record the number of hours that he or she has spent driving, the number of the miles driven during that time, and the time spent resting. Another option is for he or she to use an electronic on-board recorder that registers the amount of time they have been driven. When the trucks pass through weigh stations, the logs or recorders are sometimes checked by transportation officials. A driver can be fined or lose their license if they violate the HOS regulations.
