Trucker in WI bus crash faces federal charges of altering his log book
A jury declared a trucker not guilty in connection with a crash that killed five people and injured dozens in Wisconsin, but that driver now faces federal charges that he falsified his log book.
The Pioneer Pressreported that Michael Kozlowski, 25, of Schereville, IN, could face 60 years in prison if convicted.
Kozlowski reportedly fell asleep at the wheel in October 2005 and overturned his rig, which was then hit by a bus carrying members of a high school marching band.
Federal prosecutors say Kozlowski altered his log book at least 12 times during the two months leading up to the wreck to make it look as if he had slept more than he actually had.

For Annual Service or Multiple Purchases
The DOT HOS are currently in constant transition. The government is under pressure from many groups to place "black boxes" in all trucks. Compliance with the Hours of Service is one of the most critical aspects of a DOT Compliance Review. Weigh stations, road side check points and in office audits can all check compliance. The fleets that rate in the lowest 10% in safe compliance are going to be required to these on-board data collection devices.
Many fleets are already running GPS tracking systems such as Qualcomm or TeleTrac which can offer communications, location and hour tracking for internal usage. Once your fleet is targeted for compliance, the information collected is no longer for internal usage only. Protect your fleet from this forced invasion. Be confident that your drivers and dispatch staff are properly trained in the most current regulations that apply to your specific weight class and type of operations.
The DOT Doctor offers HOS training, how to properly fill out a logbook and auditing services. We will audit your driver's logbooks and, if desired, your dispatch schedule, for compliance. Our services are performed by trained auditors that personally scrutinize each log against fuel receipts, dispatch logs, other receipts, bill of ladings and other sources. We track over-hour violations, speeding and other violations that not in compliance with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety regulations prescribed by the DOT and FMCSA.
