Although there are still no certified electronic logging devices available to meet new Canada’s new ELD mandate, its government has added a third body approved to do those certifications.
While the 3G sunset isn’t imminent, existing infrastructure isn’t guaranteed to last until the sunset date. Fleets using ELDs are particularly vulnerable if they don’t get ahead of this technological leap now.
In a move to improve speed, efficiency and accuracy at weigh station inspection sites, Drivewyze has announced open enrollment for automated electronic e-Inspections at weigh stations in three participating states.
Canada's June 12 ELD mandate implementation date came and went with no actual devices certified yet – but a second certification company has been named.

The Canadian electronic logging device mandate will still go into effect June 12, but with a “progressive enforcement period” lasting 12 months.
Delays in ELD certification in Canada could imperil carriers' compliance with that country's new ELD rules. With fewer than 110 days remaining before the deadline, there are still no certified ELDs on the market.
Lytx said its new Unassigned Drive Time Service simplifies the burden of managing unassigned vehicle movements, reducing labor costs and risk of fines.
Geotab has introduced the availability of its new GO9+ telematics solution, which is built upon the GO9 device and now includes Wi-Fi connectivity.
Using telematics as a driver coaching tool can improve driver performance, boosting fleet fuel economy and reducing idling. It can also improve safety.
American carriers that operate into Canada are running out of time to procure an electronic logging device that complies with Canadian regulations.
Even though electronic logging devices have been mandatory for most fleets since last December, some companies find they may run into some trouble during an FMCSA compliance investigation.
With revised federal hours of service scheduled to take effect Sept. 29, ELD providers have also been planning how best to assist fleets with the changes.
Research found a selection of electronic logging devices “did little to nothing to follow cybersecurity best practices and were vulnerable to compromise.”
