Product Information

A vehicle log book (or V5C) is the type of document that will stay at the bottom of a drawer 99% of the time. But when it’s time to sell your car, you’ll be glad you kept a hold of it. Besides, there are other situations where you need a log book, so don’t put it away too far. According to federal law, the driver’s log needs to be returned to the motor carrier within thirteen days. Spell out the names of the cities completely instead of using abbreviations. But for the states, you may use abbreviations. The NSW Safer Drivers Course teaches people aged under 25 who have their learner licence to develop safe driving skills.

Another exception concerns drivers who stay within a less than 50 km radius from the operating centre of the vehicle in a day and don't drive for more than 4 hours on the same day. Then, a log book is also not required by law.

When you have a structured lesson with a driving instructor, you may be able to record bonus driving time in your log book. The set domestic driving limits stipulate that drivers cannot be on duty for more than 11 hours and a maximum of 10 can be allocated for driving in a single day. The domestic rules for drivers do not set out a prescribed amount of time for rest, although employers are obliged to ensure that drivers have “adequate rest”. As aforementioned, logs have grids which span for 24 hours. You can document all of your activities appropriately. Use the log’s grid to document these activities from the start of your shift to the end. On digital printout paper, it must be the driver’s name, or driver card or driving licence number.

The National Driver Work Diary (also known as a log book) is evidence of a driver’s work and rest hours. It’s important to complete your work diary correctly and in accordance with the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL). Every year, DVLA issues around 500,000 duplicate log books where motorists have either lost or damaged their document.Even worse, some drivers may purposely input inaccurate information on their logs for their personal gain. This may happen to drivers who get paid by the mile. This means that the more miles they cover while driving, the more money they earn.
