It's a state law and likely FX would get fined if caught not allowing the 30-min break, thus the big reaction for our managers for break infractions.As for the 8hr/60-min break...I have taken a total of maybe 2 60-min breaks in the last 12 months. I'm a DOT courier and haven't heard a single thing about it. I regularly work 10+ hours each day. In fact, my DRA route is built with only a 30-min break included and over 8 hours of on-road planned. I'm not saying some stations don't get hounded about the 60-min breaks, just saying it has never come up at my station. Especially with reference to it being a DOT issue.</blockquote>
