That's what I had to learn. Still have to log, but HOS don't apply. Weight restrictions are up to 90k, as long as they are on the proper routes etc. Also had to research and print all doc's and get ready for each driver in case DOT got funky, because as those of us in the business know, an un-educated officer can wreak havoc. I have them well prepared. Printed all emergency declarations etc. These guys are ready to go!

EDIT: Under the declaration - the exemptions in the southern states apply to all states travelling through even if not effected. As long as your CMV and driver have the proper documentation.
