Which statement is false regarding the new HOS final rule on Duty/Drive Time?

The statement about unloading freight not being permitted after the 14-hour driving window is false because the Hours of Service (HOS) regulations allow for certain activities, including unloading freight, after a driver has reached the 14-hour limit. Once the driving window closes, drivers can still perform non-driving tasks, which includes activities like unloading freight or completing paperwork, as long as these activities do not involve driving the vehicle.

To clarify the other statements: The limit of 11 hours total drive time in a 14-hour window following 10 hours off duty is accurate and aligns with HOS regulations. The rule that prohibits driving after 14 consecutive hours of being on duty is also correct, as it ensures that drivers are resting adequately after a long shift. The allowance of other non-driving work past the 14-hour window is a provision within HOS rules that ensures drivers can still address essential tasks without getting behind the wheel.
