Introduction
Motive supports the oil and gas cargo type specifically designed for fleets operating under the Texas 70/7 cycle rule. This cycle allows Drivers to log waiting time separately from the standard Off-Duty status. It makes compliance with Hours of Service reporting regulations more swift. It improves the operational accuracy of oil and gas haulers.
Steps: Texas 70/7 oil and gas cycle rule and waiting time exception
Enabling the oil and gas cargo type in Motive Driver App
1. Log in to the Motive Driver App.
2. Tap the Logs section.
3. To record a new log, tap Cargo Type.
4. Tap Oil and Gas as the cargo type.
| Note: This activates the waiting time exception. It allows fleets to log waiting time at well sites. |
Managing waiting time in Logs
1. Log in to the Motive Driver App.
2. Tap the Logs section.
3. Tap the log of an appropriate day where Waiting time is applicable.
| Note: Waiting time is treated the same as Off-Duty time for HOS purposes but is logged separately to help differentiate between standard Off-Duty time and time spent waiting at a well site. |
4. Tap Waiting Time to record the period the Driver was waiting at a well site.
5. Once the Waiting Time is logged, it appears as a separate line in the Driver’s HOS report.
| Note: Waiting time does not affect Split Sleeper Berth pairing calculations. Since only Sleeper Berth duty status is used for Split Sleeper Berth pairings under the Texas 70/7 rule. Waiting time appears in the fifth line of the log to differentiate it from the standard off-duty status. |
