Three questions;
I see a lot of drivers catching long vias at the end of FAC ops that will put them driving past 14 HOS - punch to punch. Isn't the 16 hour rule ONLY to be used for adverse conditions???
"Adverse driving conditions means snow, sleet, fog, other adverse weather conditions, a highway covered with snow or ice, or unusual road and traffic conditions, none of which were apparent on the basis of information known to the person dispatching the run at the time it was begun."
Also, based on this quote from FMCSA definitions, can you be dispatched if the weather is bad or even forcasted to be bad on a run that could go over 14 hours???
How does one deal with illegal (if it is illegal) dispatch???
