The purpose is to make the roads safer for everyone \u2013 especially the men and women who spend so much time each day driving these roads for the businesses they serve.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Benefits of ELDs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are many benefits to fleet owners, owner operators, and drivers for using ELDs, not the least of which is the reduction of paperwork burdens that can be so problematic by those who are currently logging this information by hand. There\u2019s no concern about information getting lost, misplaced, or chasing down drivers to get them to submit their logs in a timely manner.<\/p>\n<p>The other benefit is that the information is accurately recorded. Because it is tied to the actual engine of the trucks, there are no skipped or missing entries to worry about. No time zone variations. No lost papers. No need fears related to fined stemming from paperwork problems.<\/p>\n<p>Drivers benefit because it ensures they have adequate downtime between their shifts behind the wheel. This gives them an opportunity to rest, relax, and drive without the distraction of chronic sleep deprivation holding them back. It also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gpo.gov\/fdsys\/pkg\/FR-2015-12-16\/pdf\/2015-31336.pdf\">reduces harassment by carriers towards drivers<\/a> that has, in the past, goaded drivers into violating rules about driving when too tired to continue.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveviewgps.com\/fleet+tracking.html\">GPS fleet tracking<\/a> offers an ideal solution for businesses making the transition to electronic logging devices as this is one of the important functions GPS tracking solutions provides.
