HOS 70 Hour 8 Day Remaining Checker
Compare rolling on-duty hours with a configurable cycle limit. The 70-hour default applies only to qualifying US property carriers operating every day and does not evaluate restarts, recaps, exemptions, or other HOS limits.

HOS 70 Hour 8 Day Remaining Checker: Compare rolling on-duty hours with a configurable cycle limit. The 70-hour default applies only to qualifying US property carriers operating every day and does not evaluate restarts, recaps, exemptions, or other HOS limits.
When to use HOS 70 Hour 8 Day Remaining
Use this logistics calculation for a transparent shipment, inventory, warehouse, customs, packaging, carrier, or service-level estimate when the governing units and business rules are explicit.
- Hours in 8 days
- On-duty hours worked in the rolling last eight days.
- Cycle limit (h)
- Cycle hour limit (70 standard, 60 for the alternate rule).
How HOS 70 Hour 8 Day Remaining works
Compare rolling on-duty hours with a configurable cycle limit. The 70-hour default applies only to qualifying US property carriers operating every day and does not evaluate restarts, recaps, exemptions, or other HOS limits. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1
- Within cycle
- Whether the driver is still within the cycle.
- Hours remaining
- Cycle hours remaining before the limit (negative when over).
Limitations and assumptions
- Carrier tariffs, customs rules, dangerous-goods requirements, hours-of-service rules, surcharges, port terms, dimensional divisors, and service definitions vary by jurisdiction, contract, date, mode, and commodity. A calculation is not a booking, classification, or compliance determination.
- Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.
Alternative or Complementary approaches
Verify current carrier and authority documents, retain shipment dimensions and timestamps, test boundary cases, and reconcile estimates against invoices and operational scans.
