You can Configure Compliance Settings to define the information that displays in Hours of Service (HOS) reports and to define rules for your drivers. The following table summarizes the HOS and ELD settings available for your fleet:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Carrier Information |
If you need to override the carrier information with alternate information, you can do so as part of the vehicle settings (Overview > Vehicle > ... > Edit) or driver settings (Settings > Drivers > ... > Edit). Driver overrides take precedence over the fleet-wide settings and vehicle overrides. |
| Force Review of Unassigned HOS | Require drivers to review Unassigned Driving. |
| Force Manual Location For Duty Status Changes | Enabling this will force drivers to enter a location when making a duty status change if the ELD does not automatically record one. When this setting is disabled, drivers will not be prompted for a location when making a duty status change. |
| Enable Canada HOS | Enable Canada HOS rulesets, exemptions such as Deferral of Off Duty and Adverse Weather, and border check features in the dashboard and Samsara Driver App. For more information, see Compliance for Fleets in Canada. |
| Drivers Can Edit Certified Log | Allow your drivers to propose edits to their HOS logs after certifying them. When this setting is disabled, drivers are not permitted to make changes after certifying and submitting their log. You can suggest carrier edits to HOS logs only after they have been certified by the driver. To see the Samsara Driver App experience, see Edit an HOS Log. |
| Yard Move Auto Transition | Automatically transition drivers from Yard Move status to Driving status when vehicle speed is greater than 20 mph (32 km/h). This prevents drivers that use the Yard Move duty status from remaining in the status in situations where Driving status is more appropriate. When the setting is enabled, it applies to all drivers in the fleet that have access to Yard Move, and cannot be applied to specific drivers, vehicles or tags. For more information, see Yard Move (YM). |
| Persistent Yard Move Status | Enabling this setting keeps drivers in Yard Move status after the engine restarts. This is only available for drivers with Yard Move enabled and for drivers in the US. |
| Yard Move Entry Prompt | Prompt drivers to automatically transition from their Duty Status to Yard Move when stopping their vehicles or restarting an engine in a designated yard. |
| Personal Conveyance Limits |
For more information, see Personal Conveyance (PC). |
| Persistent Duty Status | Give drivers the option to keep their On Duty or Sleeper Berth duty status after signing out of the app. |
| Customizable Remarks | Configure the default remarks drivers see. For more information, see Customizable ELD Log Remarks. |
| Display Form and Manner violation report |
Enable the Form and Manner tab in the HOS violation report.
For more information, see Form and Manner Report. |
| Lock driving screen when in motion (GPS) | Enable to automatically lock the driving screen when motion is detected based on the driver’s mobile device (GPS), independent of VG connection. For more information, see Lock Driving Screen While Vehicle Is in Motion. |
| Remove certification requirement for log days prior to driver’s first active day | Enabling this setting will disable the driver prompt to certify log days prior to their first active day in the system, and will not count those uncertified log days as violations. |
| Driver Rulesets | See Customizable Driver Rulesets. |
| State Override Driver Ruleset | Configure Intrastate HOS rules for drivers. The state override will only apply when the driver selects a vehicle that is in the state. If a driver leaves the state, the driver will be moved to the organization default ruleset for that cycle. When the driver returns to the home state, the driver will be kept on the organization default ruleset for the next 7 or 8 days, per FMCSA rules. |
