To accurately report and track Hours of Service (HoS) in accordance with Electronic Logging Device (ELD) regulations, drivers must sign in and select a vehicle before beginning their workday.
To sign in and associate yourself with a vehicle for ELD compliance, complete the following workflow:
-
Ensure the Samsara Driver App is installed on your device. If necessary, download the Samsara Driver App.
-
Retrieve your Fleet ID, username, and password from your Fleet administrator. Store this information in a secure location.
If you previously received login details but forgot your password, you can Reset your Samsara Driver App Password.
-
Open the Samsara Driver App on your device.
-
Enter the Fleet ID, username, and password, you obtained previously. Then tap Sign In.
-
Select your vehicle from the list. If unsure, contact your administrator.
For drivers in Canada, attempting to continue without selecting a vehicle will trigger a No Vehicle Selected alert.
-
Tap Done to confirm your vehicle selection.
-
At the end of your shift, return to the Samsara Driver App and Sign Out.
The app will automatically apply any necessary updates upon sign-out. Review best practices for more information.
For drivers in Canada, the system enforces strict compliance with ELD regulations. If you begin driving without logging in, the Samsara Driver App will display a “Sign in to vehicle” alert, prompting you to stop and sign in before continuing.
To dismiss the alert and proceed:
-
Stop the vehicle.
-
Ensure Samsara Driver App is open on your device.
-
Verify that your device is connected to the Vehicle Gateway hotspot.
-
Tap OK on the prompt and continue to Driver Sign In.
