This is actually an employee friendly application. CDL drivers have driving hour limits. Software like this prevented companies from getting around the laws by removing the delivered that reached the daily driving limit from available drivers.
Going back to paper is how they get paid. Not how they don't get bullied into unsafe conditions.
Its a garbage system. If you move the truck it just logs your drivers on, so if I go at night and hook a truck up to a different trailer or something, the machine will log onto the last driver of the truck. Now when he gets in in the morning for the shift, the computer is telling him he only has 6 driving hours left. You spend more time changing and editing e logs for issues than you ever did paper. Administration costs are higher. The perfect system would be paper logs, backed up by a gps chip. So they could still investigate the trip if an issue came up.
Just like a ballot, can't hack paper and pen

Most of them get paid by the mile or load. The drivers have work around for just about every system out there.
