Assigning a Driving Period to a Driver

All hours of service status changes, particularly those that involve going from or to the Driving status, must be assigned to a driver, so that mileage can be accounted for. Unidentified driving periods are displayed on the Unidentified Driving screen with an "Unidentified" status and a blank Driver column.

In addition to assigning Unidentified driving periods to a driver, you can also reassign driving periods to a different driver in the following situations:

• If you have incorrectly assigned the driving period to a driver and that driver claimed or rejected the driving period.
• If you have incorrectly exempted a driving period.
• If one of your drivers has incorrectly claimed a driving period.

You can assign or reassign driving periods that are Unidentified, Exempt, Claimed, or Rejected, but not Pending. Driving periods must be less than 4 weeks old to be assigned or reassigned.
