  1. If a driver is stopped for a roadside inspection, what information must be shown to the enforcement officer?
    During a roadside inspection, the safety official will use the ELD’s display screen or printout to review the driver’s eRODS and verify compliance with the Canadian HOS regulations. The electronic logging device (ELD) will report all information and data elements required for the current 24-hour period and the previous 14 consecutive days. Additionally, the enforcement officer can request the driver to transfer electronic documents (ELD output file) for inspection purposes.
  2. What are the options for electronic logging devices (ELDs) to electronically transfer data?
    On demand during a roadside safety inspection, an electronic logging device (ELD) can produce and transfer ELD records for the current 24-hour period and the previous 14 consecutive days. At a minimum, the ELD will electronically transfer data to the authorized safety official by email. In addition to the email transfer method, the ELD may also include USB or Bluetooth options for local transfer methods.
