I thought it was 7/24 and 14/48 in Canada depending on whether you were on a 7 or 14 day cycle.

I just looked at the rules that Celadon posted for us: it's a 14day/24hr off, 36hr restart (not 34).
1. You must have 24 continuous hours off-duty at least once in every 14 days. Teams too. US no requirement to ever take a day off.
2. You must have 10 hours in off-duty, or sleeper, or combination of off-duty and sleeper none can be shorter than 30 minutes in duration every day. that is Log day. (Midnight to midnight for most drivers) US does not require this. This is a Daily requirement. 3. A new 16 hour elapse timer between 8 hours periods. Add Driving and On-Duty not driving between two eight hours shift, and the total can not be more than 16 hours. US no requirement for elapsed time between shifts. 4. You must have the last 14 days plus today log with you for inspection. The US only requires 7 plus today. This is to check the 24 hours off-duty requirement in # 1. 5. You must have a copy of all receipts, to verify your log. ie. you fueled and you scaled your load. You must have the fuel receipt and scale ticket. Without which, you can be fined and placed out of service up 72 hours. US no receipts are required for the driver, just the motor carrier. 6. Required to have in your possession the applicable schedule(s) of inspection items and shall provide the schedules on demand of an inspector. DDVIR have a new layout and information that must be entered. US DDVIR have no standards, up to the Motor Carrier

i do not know about canada,but what I do is spend 11 hrs a day with my hands on the wheel max,and 14 hours on duty including those 11 driving hours and then I show a 10 hr sleeper break and start over untill I get to the weekly max hours
70 hours/8 days of course some weeks I do not work quite that many hours and some weeks I work over those hours but I always find a way to look legal on paper |
