Electronic DOT logs can seem to be a mystery, which I find interesting when you consider they have been out for 20 years. I think that at times people over-complicate the subject just to satisfy their ego or to make the product they are pushing appear superior to competitive offerings. Whatever the case, paperless logs are an important component of automation initiatives in many progressive fleets.
Here is a free white paper that explains paperless DOT drivers logs that comply with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations found in CFR 49 395.15, as well as Canadian Public Safety Code 9.

It is a good paper. There is much confusion about what EOBRs are, what they are for and who needs them. This is a good article explaining the basics and the details. We have been running on-board electronic logs since 1989 and I still learned something. Thank you. Very nice
