Electronic logging device
An electronic logging device is a special computer gadget that helps truck drivers keep track of their driving hours. Just like how we use a calendar to remember important events, truck drivers need a way to remember how long they have been driving their big truck.
The electronic logging device is like a fancy watch that fits in the truck and automatically records when the driver starts and stops driving. It's connected to the truck's engine and records information about the truck's movements and where it’s going. This helps the driver keep track of the amount of time they've been driving and when they need to take a break.
It's important for truck drivers to keep track of their driving hours because if they drive too much without taking a break, they can get tired and cause an accident. By using an electronic logging device, truck drivers can make sure they are taking the breaks they need and staying safe while on the road.
