Legal Foundation
United States federal motor carrier safety regulations permit
a motor carrier to require a Driver to use an automatic on-
board recording device to record the Driver’s hours of
service. The use of automatic on-board recording devices is
regulated by 49 CFR 395.15. The regulations require the
operator of a vehicle and the company who employs the
operator to conform to a number of obligations and
responsibilities. The following list is not guaranteed to be
complete or legally valid.
Requirements of the Automatic On-Board Recording Device
• The device shall produce, upon demand, a Driver’s
hours of service chart, electronic display, or printout
showing the time and sequence of duty status
changes, including the Drivers’ starting time at the
beginning of each day.
• The device shall have a means by which authorized
federal, state, or local officials can immediately check
the status of a Driver’s hours of service.
Obligations of the Driver
• The Driver must use the automatic on-board recording
device if required to do so by his or her employer.
• The Driver shall have in his or her possession and
available for inspection while on duty records of duty
status for the previous seven (7) or eight (8) consecutive
days.
• All hard copies of the Driver’s record of duty status
must be signed by the Driver.
• Entries must be made by the Driver only.
• Drivers must note any failure of automatic on-board
recording devices and reconstruct his or her record of
duty status for the current day and the past seven days
and continue to prepare handwritten records until the
device is operational again.
• Drivers must review and verify that all entries are
accurate prior to submission to the employer motor
carrier.
Obligations of the Company
• Motor carriers must ensure that a certificate is obtained
from the manufacturer of the on-board recording device
certifying that the device has been sufficiently tested to
meet the requirements of 49 CFR 395.15.
• The motor carrier must ensure that the on-board
recording device permits duty statuses to be updated
only when the vehicle is at rest, except when registering
the time a vehicle crosses a state boundary.
• The motor carrier must ensure that the device and
associated support systems are, to the maximum
extent possible, tamperproof and do not permit
alterations of the information concerning the Driver’s
hours of service.
• The motor carrier must ensure that the device warns
the Driver visually or audibly that the device has ceased
to function.
• The motor carrier must ensure that the device is
maintained and recalibrated in accordance with the
manufacturer’s specifications.
• The motor carrier must ensure that Drivers are
adequately trained in proper operation of the device.
• The motor carrier must maintain a second, back-up
copy of the electronic hours-of-service files in a different
physical location than where the original data is stored.
