electronic logging devices (ELDs)

Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) are digital tools used in commercial trucking to automatically record a driver’s hours of service. They connect to a vehicle’s engine and track driving time, ensuring compliance with regulations designed to prevent fatigue. ELDs record data such as driving hours, engine activity, and rest breaks, providing accurate, real-time records that can be easily reviewed by authorities. This technology improves safety, reduces paperwork, and ensures drivers and companies adhere to legal limits on driving hours.
