LogPak Driver Log Software - News
State College, PA - Scanlon Associates announced today that responsibility for one of their
flagship products, LogPak, has been assumed by Codebottle of Rochester, NY. Leading
Codebottle is David Kilmer, one of Scanlon Associates programming consultants.
Stan Scanlon, owner of Scanlon Associates, said that LogPak users can look forward to the same
level of programming and support that they have always enjoyed. "David Kilmer was the original
programmer and architect of LogPak for Windows in 1995. He authored the most recent updates
for the regulation changes that took effect in October 2004. LogPak users will be able to access
the same expertise through Codebottle that they have always had with Scanlon Associates."
LogPak was originally written for PCs running DOS in the 1980's. It was migrated to the MS
Windows platform by Mr. Kilmer in 1995 as Scanlon's first Windows-based product. Currently there
are several hundred LogPak systems in operation.

Effective October 1, 2005, new Hours-of-Service regulations go into effect. The new rules
replace Hours-of-Service regulations that were last updated in 2003. Parts of the rule,
including the maximum driving time and minimum rest limits remain the same. However, the
rule includes changes affecting short-haul operators and longer distance drivers who use in-cab
sleeper-berths for their rest.
