Intrastate HOS Rule Types

The following HOS Rule Types can be used in place of the Federal HOS types, but only for drivers that operate strictly within the borders of the given state. If the driver crosses state lines, they are immediately in violation of the applied Intrastate HOS rule type and subject to the related Federal HOS type. 

To update the HOS cycle rule, navigate to My Account from the Contractor's E-Logs app and select a cycle.
