What should I do if my logbook has an error?

If an error is found in your logbook:

• Identify the Error: Review the log to pinpoint the issue.

• Make Corrections: For paper logs, strike through the incorrect entry and write the correction next to it, initialing and dating the change. For ELDs, submit a correction request through the system.

• Notify the Carrier: Inform your motor carrier of the error and submit supporting documentation if needed.

• Recertify the Log: If using an ELD, recertify the corrected log to comply with FMCSA rules.

• Document the Change: Keep a record of the correction for future inspections or audits.

Quick action ensures compliance and avoids complications during roadside inspections.
