Hours of Service for Commercial Drivers

Commercial motor vehicle drivers are limited to 11 hours of driving after 10 consecutive hours off duty. Drivers may not drive beyond the 14th consecutive hour after coming on duty. A 30-minute break is required after 8 cumulative hours of driving.

Property-carrying drivers may not drive after 60/70 hours on duty in 7/8 consecutive days. The restart provision allows drivers to reset the 60/70-hour clock after taking 34 or more consecutive hours off duty. Electronic logging devices (ELDs) are required to record driving time.
