    #25 Flagging Stops Ends

    After nearly 2 years of having to update the log at every single stop, the FMCSA/D.O.T. has granted a 2 year exemption. I talk more about the Driver's Daily Log, including the H.O.S. maximums and keeping your log current and neat. More incidents of bridge strikes, thankfully none from Greyhound. Finally I discuss some of Greyhound's history as a company.
