Driver’s Log Review Service
Do you know where most U.S. DOT fines are generated from? The hours of service rules. U.S. DOT Auditors will dig deep into your log records, and check against tolls, fuel tickets, anything – looking for violations. Tran Services knows the hours of service regulations inside and out. We can find every violation that U.S. DOT would find.
- RECAPPING AND AUDITING: Each month, you will mail in your logs and any expense receipts. We computer recap your logs to determine if the number of allowable hours has been exceeded. We match the logs against toll, fuel, and other expense receipts to check for false entries. Attention is given to all logs – most violations will not be found on just a single log.

- REPORTS: You will receive 2 reports.
Report #1, provided for each log that contains detailing violations, break downs of overtime violations, mile-per-hour violations, missing logs, and missing miles found by the computer recap for individual drivers.
Report #2 is a company recap of all drivers’ violations. U.S. DOT realizes that not all logs are going to be perfect; what is important is that you know what is wrong with a log and have taken steps toward improvement.
