ELD

Electronic Logging Device

In short

ELD is an electronic logging device. A box in the cab that automatically records how long the driver drove and sat.

In plain words

It's like location sharing with a jealous girlfriend.

Every minute is logged. You can't claim 'I was sleeping.'

Drivers used to fill out paper logs, and sometimes they 'drew' their hours.

Now in the US, an ELD is required for almost every truck.

The inspector at the scale checks it in a minute.
