W
e are drawing ever closer to that Dec. 18, 2017, deadline
for ELD compliance. We are seeing one to two new companies
show up on the registry as certified devices every month. What does
certified really mean? Who has vetted these devices and what makes them
better or worse than other devices on the market? These are questions that we need to be
asking before installing these units in our trucks. Just because a unit has been "certified" does
not mean it is a device that fits our needs and it does not mean that it is any better than a device that isn't
certified. Here is a quick look at the concerns that arise from devices that are already on the ELD Registry.
