For property-carrying drivers, the concept of �split shifts� is not relevant due to the limitations of the 14-hour rule. The provisions of 395.1(e) only provide an exception to the record of duty status, i.e., �logbook,� requirements.
150 air-mile radius driver � A driver may go on- and off-duty multiple times during a duty tour, after completing at least 10 hours off duty, but the total of all on- and off-duty time accumulates toward their 14 hours. Once a driver is on duty more than 14 hours they no longer meet the 150 air-mile radius exemption.
Non-CDL, 150-air-mile drivers � A driver may go on- and off-duty multiple times during a duty tour, but the total of all on- and off-duty time accumulates towards the 14- or 16-hour time limit, whichever is applicable at the time, until the driver has a period of 10 or more consecutive hours off-duty.
Prior regulatory guidance on this subject (Question 19, 395.1) no longer applies to property-carrying drivers, but does apply to passenger carrying drivers.
