Whose responsibility?

Just like it's your responsibility to renew your drivers license and DOT card
This isn't kindergarten.

If we don't start on a even hour, I can't do it.

60 hours is 60 hours. No need for clicks.

Today will be my lightest day this week. I have 10.45 hours available. Will feel like an 8 hour day.

Would it really be that difficult for the company to develop software to track those hours on a daily and weekly basis, highlighting those drivers getting close to going over?

Our managers print a report that shows everyone's daily hours and week to date totals. They monitor it closely at Peak.

Who drives 14 hours a day anyways,not me I have never been close to violating this one.

With the time card viewer on UPSers it's actually quite easy to keep track of your total hours for the week.

They have a report for all the other crap. It would be too logical to run a report for something useful.

There is a DOT HOS report in GTS. And any Sup worth his salt runs it every day. Shows hours worked last 6 days and last 7 days, Next available work time, and hours available.

Every driver should know how many hours they have available and every Sup should know exactly how many hours every one of their drivers has available for that day. DOT HOS violations are about the stupidest issues we have at this company.

Had one of our newer guys tell one of the bosses today that he was going to be out past his 60 hour mark due to too much work...Boss looks at him and says and I quote, "go over 60, and don't bother coming back on Monday."

Seems pretty cut and dried to me...

It's on the driver to make sure he is within DOT regulations including daily hours, weekly hours, and weekly reset. Management can dispatch you however they please but they cannot make you work past 14 hours a day or 60 hours a week. If they instruct you to work over your allotted DOT hours then this is one of those times where you get to NOT work as directed
