The Perfect Guide to Understanding the FMCSA’s 34-hour Restart Rule

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's FMCSA 34-hour restart rule governs the maximum amount of time that a commercial truck driver may drive without taking a break. This rule is designed to ensure that drivers have enough rest time to reduce the risk of fatigue and improve safety on the roads.

The 34-hour restart rule requires drivers to take a break of at least 34 consecutive hours, during which they must have two periods from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. included in the break. This restart break must be taken in a location that is off-duty and not in a moving vehicle.

The rule applies to commercial truck drivers who are subject to the Hours of Service (HOS) regulations, and it is meant to limit the number of consecutive hours that drivers can spend on the road without taking a break. This is important because studies have shown that extended periods of driving without rest can lead to fatigue, which is a major cause of truck accidents.

Drivers must also comply with the 11-hour daily driving limit and the 14-hour daily on-duty limit as specified by the HOS regulations. The 34-hour restart rule provides drivers with the flexibility to restart their HOS clock and continue driving, but it also imposes restrictions on the frequency and conditions under which restarts can be taken.

Overall, the FMCSA's 34-hour restart rule is an important part of the federal regulations governing commercial trucking and helps to ensure the safety of drivers, passengers, and other motorists on the roads.

I love that the last episode of delicious party brought back MemMem and PamPam's humans forms right as I was working on human designs for the Witch's servants and Kururun, very funny timing 😂I had so much fun with all of them!!

For Kururun specifically I followed the same pattern as the energy fairies, who look like younger siblings of their respective cure, and based her looks on Laura’s hair and the Cure Kururun outfit. For me Kururun is that fun kid you accidentally meet once when you go to the beach as a child and somehow you’re immediately besties :D

Kururun and Elde would run in circles around a midly exasperated Butler who really hopes this human thing is temporary XD

ID under the cut:

Image Description: a lineup of Numeri, Elde, Butler, Chongire and Kururun from Tropical Rouge Precure as humans, standing against a background fading from pink to light blue to pink again. Numeri has vitiligo, Elde has a pinkish skintone and Butler, Chongire and Kururun have varied degrees of tan to dark skin, with Chongire being the darkest and Kururun the warmest in hue. Chongire is wearing his chef uniform and has navy blue wavy hair styled in a mullet and a goatee. Kururun is wearing her Cure Kururun costume (a white, teal and pink outfit) and a red and pink floatie with reddish pink swimming flippers. She has two lines on sunscreen on each cheek and a brown bandaid on her nose.

A Minute of Rest

Based on the art by @shunkani

Dancing candle flames and the muted glow of the lanterns swam before her eyes. Hange Zoe would swap tedious hours of paperwork with titan or—as these days demanded—technological research any time. The mechanisms of a rail engine or the complex arrangements and workings of gears and wires were certainly more suited for her exhausted brain than planning the next steps of their alliance with Hizuru.

Nevertheless, it wasn’t like she had much of a choice. With a sigh, she adjusted her glasses and pulled another sheet towards herself. Yellow parchment, embedded with small black text. Shadows flickered around the words. Her brain caught fragments of them.

Diplomatic relations with Hizuru date back to more than a century ago . . .

The unique characteristics of the Iceburst stone enable . . .

Potential reason of interest . . .

. . . cornered nation . . . no other country tolerates Eld . . .

She hunched over the table, squinting at the document, willing her mind to turn the words over and whip out a solution. There was a throbbing in her temples, and her back was stiff. But no, they had to plan their next moves; Hizuru had extended a hand of friendship and provided Paradis with ample resources for research about the outer world. She had to go through it all, understand the stance and motives of as many countries as she could. She wasn’t going to consider Hizuru as a reliable ally though, they were more concerned with Mikasa and the Iceburst stone rather than a good future for Paradis.

Hange slumped over her desk, face hidden in her arms. She was so tired of dealing with hate and mistrust and selfish, close-minded people. So tired.

A door opened behind her; quiet, measured footsteps sounded.

Levi.

A scraping sound on her desk followed by the weight of a hand on her shoulder.

‘Hange,’ his voice was low and made something warm and soothing unfurl in her stomach.

‘Mmm?’

‘Get your ass in bed if you’re so tired.’

She lifted her head. Levi was standing beside her, shadows playing upon his face; there was a cup of steaming tea on her desk. She sighed, pulling another paper towards herself, ‘Can’t.’

‘Your brain won’t understand shit in this state. Get some rest, a few hours won’t hurt.’

Oh yes they would. She squeezed her eyes shut. Time was precious, if she slept now who knows how many seconds, how many minutes would trickle through her fingers like water, and then she’d wake up, regretting it, because she could have done more research, maybe she’d have found answers, but then it would be morning and everyone would be awake and bustling about, and her presence would be demanded everywhere, and there’d be meetings where Zackly and Pixis and Lady Azumabito would stare at her, asking for their next moves, and whether she’d figured out something or not, but she’d just sit there with a blank face because she was so damn exhausted that she slept and there wouldn’t be time to do anything at all then, because she jus—

Fingers pressed into the back of her shoulders, kneading her stiff muscles, cutting out her thoughts.

Her surprised exhale crumbled into a weary one. Levi’s hands gradually moved to her shoulder blades, thumbs digging into the sore, knotted parts of her back. Warmth rippled through her body at his touches, easing out a tension she wasn’t aware of until now.

‘This feels so fucking good,’ she mumbled heavily. ‘I didn’t even know I needed this.’

‘With that shitty posture, of course you needed this,’ he said, pushing her back and straightening her spine. ‘If you sit in that position for hours, it’ll definitely make your muscles go all tense.’

‘You’re starting to sound like Moblit,’ Hange chuckled. ‘Ever the worrywart.’

‘Someone has to look out for your clumsy ass.’

‘So you’ve decided to take full responsibility then, Captain?’ she grinned.

‘Never got the liberty of deciding in the first place,’ he droned out.

She laughed softly, somehow feeling lighter than she had in hours, days. His hands were still pressing upon her shoulders, lifting the invisible weight, induced by stress. She hummed softly and leaned back, so that she was pressing against Levi’s chest. His hands stilled, curling around the curves of her shoulders.

‘Oi . . .’ he said softly.

The back of her head came to rest against his neck. She inhaled deeply, a clean woody scent invaded her nose, making her eyes flutter shut and her breaths slow down. It felt good, having Levi so close, feeling his warmth all around.

‘Hange,’ he called her again.

‘Can we just . . . stay like this . . . for a while?’ she whispered.

Yeah, just for a while. Because she still had work to do, so she couldn’t give in to the heavy pull of sleep yet. She’d rest for a minute, with Levi right beside her. Then she’d start again.

‘Okay,’ he said quietly.

‘Just . . . don’t let me sleep. I still have . . .’ her words dissolved into exhausted breaths, ‘so much to do.’

‘Sure, don’t worry.’

So late in that night, when the golden hues of the candle flames splashed against wood and stone, and the barracks lay under the heavy spell of sleep, a tired Commander rested against her faithful Captain, knowing he would pull her out of the velvety folds of slumber and get her back to work soon.

But for now, she had a minute. A minute of rest.

AOT Veterans: Modern AU HCs

Hange would learn a lot about engineering and building stuff. They'd have the messiest garage full of tools for metal fabrication, welding, woodworking. They'd also have the oldest car to have ever existed, a comically unreliable one in fact, and perhaps one that they'd bought cheap and fixed up themself.

The oldest car and then a motorcycle they share with Mike. The motorcycle is probably old, too, though.

Erwin would work as a private investigator. He has the intelligence and intuition for such things, and I think he would truly enjoy the challenges of analyzing clues and fitting pieces of information together. He'd be able to utilize his ability to be one step ahead very thoroughly.

Hange probably went to university or is in university, studying something crazy cool like astrobiology. I think they would love astrobiology, actually, considering the incredible number of layers of science you'd need to learn to major in something so complicated.

Erwin loves to sit down with Hange and listen to them drone on and on about what they're learning. He is probably the only one who does, but he just loves the idea that they aren't alone on Earth, that life could be out there somewhere even if we don't see or know it yet. They love theorizing about aliens, wondering late at night if they have eyes or if they have senses that humans don't, if they can detect dark matter or not. The two of them can stay up the whole night like this.

In all universes, Levi works in a cafe. He likely didn't attend school, or didn't pay attention much because his family was in debt due to his mother's medical bills. He had bigger problems, but he does enjoy his life in a cafe.

Nanaba works as a hairdresser. She just really loves the feeling when she brings out an entirely new side of a person, or encourages them be more like themselves. She finds it to be a very caring job, and she loves when her customers leave the shop satisfied with a fresh new style.

She struggles with money a little bit because she gave up wealth in favor of pursuing something she likes.

Nanaba definitely does not accept help when it comes to finances, though, no matter how much her friends offer it to her. She's stubborn, and everyone knows it. So some days, Mike will invite her out to eat with him to spare her the trouble of dinner. It's a win-win, too, because he likes her a lot.

Levi only takes taxis. He doesn't like to drive or bike or take the bus, especially not the bus due to its unclean environment. He also carries sprayable hand sanitizer around, along with a tube of Lysol wipes. He offers Lysol wipes and hand sanitizer for free at his cafe because he always appreciates when they have such things available in public. They just sit on the counter, ready for usage.

Hange is always studying at Levi's cafe on the weekends. Sometimes they drag Nanaba along to sit there with them. Levi gives Nanaba a free muffin purely out of bias, then makes Hange pay for whatever they want to eat.

But he secretly gives them a discount.

Maybe Mike works as a health coach. Not sure where this one came from, but he has the motivation and the attitude for it. He's the therapy friend of the group, but with less emphasis on emotion and more emphasis on finding the solutions.

Mike always wears athletic clothes.

The five of them have a five-way dinner date type of thing, where they meet up at the end of every week, at one of their houses usually, to cook together, eat food, play music and games, watch movies, and just unwind and have a fun time. A lot of weeks, they'll make a party out of it. The five of them will invite the others: Nifa, Moblit, Petra, Oluo, Eld, Gelgar, and other obscure characters.

It is here that Levi, Petra, and Nanaba often don their matching sweatpants (there's another post about this)

The veterans may also get drunk, depending on who it is. It's a given for Gelgar, but Levi has shown preferences for tea.

Usually, they all sleep on the floor together, or split the house into the bedrooms and the sofas. Erwin and Mike are big, so they hog beds all to themselves. The rest of them make do; Nanaba and Eld make pillow forts on the carpet and camp there while Hange sprawls out to the side, and Levi and Petra stuff themselves into the crevices because they're small.

By tracking your fuel usage meticulously, you’ll ensure compliance and maximize the credits you’re entitled to.

Understand State and Federal Regulations

Each state has different rules and rates for fuel tax credits. Researching or consulting with experts on these variations is crucial. For example, while federal credits may cover certain off-road uses, state-level programs might include additional exemptions. Experts offering trucking small business advisory services can help navigate these complexities, ensuring you claim all available credits without errors.

Identify Eligible Fuel Usage Categories

Fuel tax credits are typically available for:

Off-Road Equipment Use – Fuel used in auxiliary power units (APUs), refrigeration units, or other non-transportation equipment.

Non-Taxable Routes – Operating in areas exempt from certain fuel taxes, such as on private roads or agricultural sites.

Exported Fuel – Fuel purchased in one state but consumed in another may qualify for reimbursement or credit under specific programs.

By identifying eligible categories, you can optimize your claims and reduce your tax liability significantly.

Automate Fuel Tax Calculations

Manual calculations can lead to errors and missed opportunities. Many trucking software solutions integrate fuel tax management features, automatically calculating credits based on your operations. These tools simplify the process and ensure accuracy, allowing you to focus on your business.

Work with Experts

Navigating the rules surrounding fuel tax credits can be challenging, especially for small trucking businesses. Partnering with professionals who specialize in trucking taxation ensures you’re not leaving money on the table. A trucking small business advisory team can analyze your operations, identify credit opportunities, and help file accurate claims.

Plan Strategically for Savings

Fuel tax credits can do more than reduce your tax liability—they can improve your overall cash flow. By incorporating these credits into your financial strategy, you can allocate savings toward other operating costs, such as maintenance or equipment upgrades, further reducing long-term expenses.

Conclusion

Leveraging fuel tax credits is a smart way for truckers to reduce operating costs and improve profitability.

By using this app, drivers can rest assured that they are operating within legal bounds, thus avoiding fines for non-compliant equipment.

. Real-Time Alerts

A common mistake many truck drivers make is unknowingly violating HOS regulations due to lack of awareness. The ELD Mandate Plus App offers real-time alerts and notifications that help drivers stay within their allowed hours. The app will notify users when they are approaching their driving limit, helping them avoid violations and fines that could be incurred from driving overtime.

With just a few taps, logs can be sent directly to inspectors, ensuring compliance and avoiding penalties.

Sometimes, truckers find themselves in areas with limited connectivity, which could affect their ability to update logs in real-time. The ELD Mandate Plus App offers offline functionality, ensuring that logs are still recorded even when the driver is in a remote area. Additionally, the app allows drivers to keep backup paper logs in case of technical failures, which can further help them avoid fines.

The ELD Mandate Plus App provides comprehensive reporting features that benefit both drivers and fleet managers.
