How to Choose the Best Electronic Logging Device for Compliance

Electronic Logging

In the trucking industry, it is always highly important to make sure your company stays compliant with regulations. In fact, this isn’t only a strict legal requirement, but a critical component of successful fleet management and company integrity. One area where compliance is especially crucial is the use of Electronic Logging Devices.

These tools, often called ELDs, have become an integral part of modern trucking operations. At Vehicle Licensing Consultants, we want to help you understand the key considerations that all trucking companies should keep in mind when selecting an ELD. 

The Importance of an Electronic Logging Device in Trucking

Electronic Logging Devices have revolutionized the way trucking companies manage their drivers’ hours of service (HOS) and maintain compliance with various government regulations. These helpful devices not only simplify the record-keeping process, but also enhance overall safety on the roads by preventing fatigue-related accidents and making sure that drivers adhere to legal driving limits.

The All-Too-Common Pitfalls of Revoked ELDs

Unfortunately, the market is flooded with various ELD options, and not all of them live up to the standards set by regulatory agencies. Some ELDs have faced revocation in recent years due to non-compliance issues. This has led to a great deal of legal troubles for certain trucking companies that have become reliant on them.

The revocation of many different ELD’s only highlights the need for thorough research and consideration when choosing an ELD for your company in order to avoid unnecessary complications down the road.
