ELD ADOPTION SURVEY RESULTS

(New weekly polling data added every Monday by 2pm CST.)

RESULTS AS OF: 1/22/2018

The ELD compliance rate this past week was 86%.   This is almost the exact average of the first two weeks of 2018 (89% and 79%), and brings the three week moving average up three points to 85%.  

​

It really has become a tale of two fleet types though.  Longer haul carriers are now running close to 95% compliant, while shorter haul regional fleets are still stuck around 75% compliant. 

​

One of the primary reasons shorter haul fleets are slower to install ELDs is their familiarity with the inspectors and processes in the lanes and regions they operate in day after day.  For longer haul fleets who are chasing miles it is hard to predict how inspectors will enforce the mandate in unfamiliar regions of the country. 

​

This line of thinking has lead regional fleets to wait until the last very possible moment to start the ELD buying process. 

Most of the fleets who still aren't compliant are telling us 1) Their equipment is still on back order, or 2) They've had issues with their original ELD equipment and either reordered or are shopping for a new vendor.
