This course covers hours of service end to end: the four daily limits and the two weekly ones, why the 14-hour window is the clock that catches people, what counts as which kind of duty status, the flexibilities the 2020 rule added including the split sleeper berth and the wider short-haul exception, whether you need an electronic logging device and what an exemption does and does not remove, and what an officer at the roadside and an investigator in an audit each look for. The course is organized into five modules of short lessons, followed by a final quiz.
