10 hours of off duty or sleeper berth or a combination of both.

5 to 6 six hours sleeping, the rest is fudged. If I sleep more than 6, I'm worthless as I'm groggy and tired all day, less than 5 I'm dangerous. I always try to get six and I'm good to go. As long as it looks legit, you're good. And no, I'm no cowboy, I just know what my body and mind need to be well-rested. And believe me, I love my sleep!

Think you need to go to the FMCSA web site and read part 395 again.
