1. A system for determining a driver log entry, comprising:
- one or more onboard vehicle sensors configured to capture data from a vehicle;
a processor configured to;
determine a log start time;
determine a drive maneuver signature associated with the driver based at least in part on data from the one or more onboard vehicle sensors, wherein the drive maneuver signature comprises measurable characteristic behaviors or a recognized manner associated with performing one or more drive maneuvers;
determine a driver identity after the log start time based at least in part on the drive maneuver signature associated with the driver;
determine whether a change to the driver identity has occurred based at least in part on data from the one or more onboard vehicle sensors;
in the event that a change to the driver identity is determined to have occurred,determine a log stop time and generate a driver log entry based at least in part on the driver identity, the log start time, and the log stop time; and
in the event that a change to the driver identity is determined to have not occurred, associated driving data with the driver identity; and
a memory coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions.

Abstract
A system for determining a driver log entry comprises a processor and a memory. The processor is configured to determine a log start time. The processor is configured to determine a driver identity after the log start time. The processor is configured to determine whether a change to the driver identity has occurred based at least in part on a sensor data. In the event that the driver identity has changed, the processor is configured to determine a log stop time and determine a driver log entry using the log start time, the driver identity, and the log stop time.

17. A method for determining a driver log entry, comprising:
-
determining a log start time; determining, using a processor, a drive maneuver signature associated with the driver based at least in part on data from the one or more onboard vehicle sensors, wherein the drive maneuver signature comprises measurable characteristic behaviors or a recognized manner associated with performing one or more drive maneuvers; determining a driver identity after the log start time based at least in part on the drive maneuver signature associated with the driver; determining whether a change to the driver identity has occurred based at least in part on data from the one or more onboard vehicle sensors; in the event that a change to the driver identity is determined to have occurred, determining a log stop time and generating a driver log entry based at least in part on the driver identity, the log start time, and the log stop time; and in the event that a change to the driver identity is determined to have not occurred, associating driving data with the driver identity.
