If a driver logs meal time as off-duty time, does that allow the driver to extend the 14-hour on-duty period?

No. Off-duty breaks during the day do not extend the workday to permit a driver of a property-carrying commercial motor vehicle to drive after the 14th consecutive hour on duty. However, time logged as off duty is not counted in calculating a driver�s 60/70-hour on-duty period.
