2106 Truck driver

Can a truck driver deduct meals at per diem rate for 263 days on the road in one year? If it were a smaller number of days I would not even be questioning this. It is just that this is a very large deduction, but I don't see why we would not be able to take this. Please respond. Thanks

Sounds like a lot I know, but in reality there are a rather large number of truckers who are out on the road even longer than that. If the log books document that time, then run with it and legally. And hope you don't have a client whose log books were washed out into the Gulf of Mexico last August by Katrina! ChEAr$, Harlan Lunsford, EA n LA
