This is an excerpt from the Administrator’s Guide to the Drive App (Click Here) by GEOTAB

Hours of Service Compliance

The Drive App is a certified tool for meeting the Electronic Logging Device (ELD) requirements in North America. As a motor carrier, before using the Drive App, you must:

! IMPORTANT: The Driver’s Guide to the Drive App, the Driver’s Guide to Data Transfer at Roadside Checks, and the Driver’s Guide to Data Diagnostics & Malfunction Events must be kept in the CMV at all times. For drivers in the USA, these documents must be made available during a roadside check in accordance with FMCSA 49 CFR §395.22 (h). In addition, drivers must have a supply of blank Records of Duty Status (RODS) paper logs sufficient to record the driver’s duty status and other related information for the duration of the current trip. Maintain a second backup copy of the electronic hours-of-service files, by month, at a different physical location from where the original data is stored — FMCSA 49 CFR § 395.22(i).
