Electronic Logging Devices

Electronic logging devices, or ELDs for short, are devices that are used to track the number of hours a professional driver is on the road. This is important because there are certain laws and regulations that require drivers to take breaks and get rest to make sure they are safe on the road.

ELDs help with this by automatically recording the number of hours drivers are driving and the number of hours they are resting. This information is then sent to the driver's company and the government to make sure everyone is following the rules.

Think of it like a little computer that sits in the driver's truck and keeps track of how long they have been driving. It's kind of like a stopwatch that starts when they begin driving and stops when they stop.

ELDs are important because they help make sure drivers are safe and following the rules, which helps prevent accidents on the road.
