What are Electronic Logging Devices? (ELD)

This course module sheds light on the importance of using modern and advanced electronic logging devices (ELDs) that have been mandatory by the FMCSA and DOT for commercial trucks and buses working across the U.S. This course will explain to drivers how electronic logging devices automatically record driving time and also help them maintain Hours of Service (HOS) records for DOT compliance purposes. It also educates drivers on how to use the ELD to collect data related to the vehicle's engine, movement, and miles traveled. When maintaining fleet compliance, going through inspections, and route planning, drivers can use the ELD and stay up to date in real-time.
