Team Driving With a Garmin eLog Compliant ELD
You can switch between active drivers at any time if you are driving in a team. Each driver must log in to the Garmin eLog App before they can be set as the active driver.
Contact your motor carrier or the FMCSA for questions regarding usage.
Editing a Duty Status
Duty status changes will be limited when using the team driving feature.
- A driving status cannot be reassigned to another driver.
- A manual record of a driving status cannot be added to the records of another driver’s logs.
- Logs not involving driving time can be edited as long as they do not overlap with other entries or result in vehicle motion and no assigned driver.
- See Editing a Garmin eLog ELD Duty Status Entry for more information on editing an entry.
Setup
Refer to your owner's manual for instructions on setting up and using the Team Drive feature.
In the example on the left, John is the only driver logged in. They are not team driving. When both drivers are logged in, it will look like the example on the right. John is driving and Tommy is in Sleeper Berth.
Logging Out
A driver can log out of the application while in a non-driving status. It is important to log out when using Off Duty or Sleeper Berth to avoid any accidental recording of Hours of Service.
