Review the wait for container release
The Port of New Orleans identifies the Clarence Henry Truckway as a dedicated road connection to its cargo terminals. Port of New Orleans.
Use a New Orleans terminal pickup where the driver arrives before the container is released. Identify the driver's responsibilities during that interval and who communicates permission to move. Keep the cargo-release event and the driver's activity record distinct when evaluating the next road leg.

The ELD does not issue port credentials, release a container or guarantee a terminal turnaround time.
