May “oilfield” drivers take advantage of the 16-hour exception provided for property-carrying drivers under § 395.1(o)?
No. The exception in § 395.1(o) is only available to drivers who otherwise strictly observe the 14-hour limit. Since § 395.1(d)(2) allows drivers of commercial motor vehicles specially constructed to service oil wells to exclude waiting time at a natural gas or oil well site from on-duty time, these drivers do not strictly observe the 14-hour limit on a daily basis. An oilfield driver may choose to use the exception provided in either § 395.1(d)(2) or § 395.1(o), but not both.
