The Electronic Logging Device (ELD) Mandate is a congressionally mandated rule aimed at creating a safer work environment for truck drivers and eliminating $1.6 billion in paperwork costs. The mandate requires electronic logging devices to synchronize with vehicles' engines, automatically recording driving time and hours of service data. Trucking operators have options to comply, including single-purpose ELD devices, smartphones or tablets with ELD tracking software, and portable ELDs. The deadline for compliance is December 18, 2017, but a grace period allows truckers until April 1 to come into compliance. Non-compliance can result in fines and violation points, as well as potential safety risks due to driver fatigue. The ELD mandate is expected to save lives by preventing crashes and injuries, and eliminate paperwork costs for motor carriers and law enforcement agencies. A solution like Miradore's Enterprise Mobility Management can help trucking companies secure their devices, install and update apps remotely, and restrict device use to prevent abuse.
