Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Motive electronic logging device (ELD) compliant with the U.S. and Canada ELD mandates?
The Motive ELD solution is certified for use across the U.S. and Canada. In the U.S., our ELD is FMCSA-registered to fully meet the requirements of the U.S. ELD mandate. In Canada, ELDs must be certified by a third-party certification body. Motive is fully certified on Android and iOS for the Canadian ELD mandate.
Full enforcement of the Canadian ELD mandate is coming January 1, 2023. To avoid operational disruptions, adopt ELD-compliant devices as soon as possible. ELD compliance in Canada isn’t far off. Access our Canadian compliance functionality before the enforcement deadline. Getting used to the new ELD compliance software will keep you ahead of the curve.
Which cycle rules does Motive support?
Motive supports the following Hours of Service cycle rules in the U.S. and Canada:
USA 70 hours / 8 days
USA 60 hours / 7 days
Alaska 70 hours / 7 days

Where applicable, Motive supports separate rules for property- and passenger-carrying vehicles. Motive also supports rules for carriers using the oilfield operations exceptions under 49 CFR 395.1(d).
What is the difference between the Motive Driver App and the Motive Vehicle Gateway?
The Motive Driver App, when used alone, is a fully editable electronic log. It replaces paper logs. The standalone Motive Driver App is compliant with USDOT/FMCSA rule 395.8(a)(iii). The rule regards a driver’s manually maintained record of duty status and Canada’s commercial vehicle drivers Hours of Service regulations.
The Motive Vehicle Gateway is a hardware device that connects to the diagnostic port (ECM) of a vehicle. When used with the Motive Driver App, the Motive Vehicle Gateway automatically records driving time. It does so in compliance with USDOT/FMCSA’s ELD Rule found in 49 CFR Part 395. Drivers can manage their Hours of Service in the Driver App.
Which vehicles are compatible with the Motive Vehicle Gateway?
The Motive Vehicle Gateway plugs into all standard 9-pin, 6-pin, or OBDII diagnostic ports. If you’re using a model year 2013 or newer Mack or Volvo truck, Motive provides a special cable harness. We also provide Y-cables so you can hide the cabling behind a trim panel.
Which mobile devices are compatible with Motive?
The Motive Driver App is compatible with the majority of Android and iPhone/iPad devices. For Android devices, the operating system must be 4.1 or later. For iPhone/iPad devices, the operating system must be 8.0 or later. Devices without a cellular connection can be used. However, the driver should regularly connect their mobile device to the internet via WiFi to automatically sync their data to the Motive servers.
Can I use the Vehicle Gateway and Driver App without cellular data?
Yes. The Motive Vehicle Gateway and Driver App can be used offline. However, the driver must regularly open the Driver App while connected to a WiFi hotspot. Doing so empowers drivers to share logs with their company and back up data to Motive’s servers. We recommend using our products with a cellular data plan. Drivers that use the Motive Vehicle Gateway to meet their obligations under the ELD rule must always ensure that they have an active internet connection.
How does the Motive Vehicle Gateway record driving time?
When the Motive Vehicle Gateway detects that the vehicle is moving faster than 5 mph, the vehicle is considered In Motion. When the vehicle returns to 0 mph, the vehicle is considered Stationary. Driving time is automatically recorded on the driver’s log if the mobile device is connected to the Vehicle Gateway and the driver has selected the vehicle in the Motive Driver App. The ELD mandate states that the 5 mph speed threshold can’t be adjusted.
Does Motive support Personal Conveyance and Yard Move?
Yes. A driver can select Personal Conveyance or Yard Move as special driving categories in the Motive Driver App, when enabled by the fleet. Any driving time recorded by the Vehicle Gateway while the driver has selected Personal Conveyance will be considered Off Duty time. Any driving time recorded while the driver has selected Yard Move will be considered On Duty time. Fleet admins and managers with adequate permissions can enable or disable a driver for the Personal Conveyance and Yard Move special driving categories. They can find that capability in the Motive Fleet Dashboard.
Drivers operating under Canadian HOS cycles will automatically be switched to Driving status once they exceed the 75 km Personal Conveyance limit and 32 km/h Yard Move limit.
Does Motive support team driving?
Yes, teams with up to nine co-drivers can manage their Hours of Service, view inspections, and review documents from a shared device. They can also switch between driver profiles easily without logging in/out.
What happens when a driver is in an area with no cellular data service?
If the driver forgets to log in to the Driver App and connect to the Vehicle Gateway before driving, or if the connection gets interrupted, the Vehicle Gateway will continue to record all driving time under the unidentified driver profile. When a driver reconnects to the Vehicle Gateway, they’ll be prompted to accept or reject trips generated under the unidentified driver profile.
Smart Trip Match uses advanced AI technology to automatically match unidentified trips with recommended drivers. It then notifies drivers of those matches in real time. If there’s a dash cam installed, drivers are also instantly alerted if they’re not logged in to their Driver App when driving. That functionality helps to reduce unidentified trips.
What data transfer types does the Motive ELD support for roadside inspections?
Motive supports the two telematics data transfer protocols specified by the FMCSA for roadside inspections: web services and email. Motive will also support the Canadian email transfer protocols.
