Hi Frank, hope you're doing well after your recent surgery.
Does keeping a log book entitle you to a tax break? I have been told you can write off something like $36 a day for every day logged. Is this just for meals, and could I accomplish the same thing by saving the actual meal receipts? If I use the log, will I then be bound by the Hours of Service rules? I'll be driving for an owner. Thanks.
