A driver may record personal use of a CMV as off-duty only when they aren't doing work for the motor carrier. A driver can also use the CMV for personal reasons, even when loaded, as long as the load isn't being transported for the motor carrier's business benefit. However, remember that personal conveyance should not affect the driver's or the motor carrier's responsibility to operate the vehicle safely. Motor carriers can set personal conveyance limitations to ensure the safe and responsible operation of their CMVs at all times.
