What should a driver do if an officer requests their trip log?

When an officer requests a driver’s trip log, the appropriate action is to provide it upon request. This is a part of the driver's legal obligation to be transparent and comply with regulatory requirements. Trip logs are essential for documenting the hours of service and ensuring that drivers adhere to safety regulations regarding driving and rest periods. Providing the log as requested helps maintain legal compliance and demonstrates professionalism and cooperation with law enforcement.

The other choices do not align with regulatory expectations or the principles of good practice. Delaying the provision of the log until the end of the trip may not satisfy the officer's immediate request, and ignoring the request can lead to serious legal repercussions or penalties. Asking for a receipt is irrelevant in this context, as it does not address the officer's request and could come across as evasive. Therefore, promptly providing the trip log is the most suitable and responsible action.
