Top 10 toughest states on hours of service violations

Oregon was the 2013 leader on this list, and its percentage of issued hour infractions fell by only a point in our analysis of the 2014 data. All states are ranked according to the percentage of all violations their total number of hours of service violations issued to drivers makes up.

Other state rose to a much larger degree. The chart below reflects 1-10 in the hours “toughest states” rankings. The smaller blue bar shown for each state reflects 30-minute break infractions and their percentage of all violations in the state. Readers will take note of the high percentages of 30-minute-break violations in states that moved up the list significantly in 2014, notably Kansas, North Dakota and Arkansas, which this year took the top spot with nearly a third of its total violations relating directly to the logbook.
