What an excellent web site giving clear and precise information to haulers /drivers.

Have you thought about information relating to Operator licensing ie; exemptions and what is required for an Operator to comply ?

As an enforcement officer I can understand this web site can only help driver's with reference to the mine field and often grey area's of driver's hours and tachograph legislation .

RE: Tacho hours and part time drivers

Thanks a lot Alan. That is exactly how it looked to me after I had read the rules and your excellent site.

subject: Evidence from tachograph chart 

Many thanks for a prompt and helpful response to my question regarding the likelihood of a minor accident to an articulated trailer being shown on the tractor unit's tachograph recording.  I now feel more confident to give evidence in court having received your advice.
Your web site is very professional and informative.

RE: Is it me? 

I appreciate the feedback.  If you don’t mind I’ll keep in touch as bench marking is a valuable tool.  I see what you mean about GV 262 – surprisingly, it’s actually correct in PSV 375

Re Daily rest at home or away.

Many thanks for your reply, it has helped me, it’s a bit of a bummer though as a round trip for me is 45 mins then you have to eat and get washed doesn't leave much time for sleep. Once again thank you and have a Merry Christmas and a good New Year

Re Can driver be forced to take daily rest reductions?

Cheers, I appreciate your comments.

Many thanks for your quick reply this has helped me a lot as I thought the Bed mode was only used at the end of a working day it seems although taking breaks legally I have not been recording them. Once again many thanks.

Thank you for your help it was useful and i will continue to look at your web site on a regular basis.

I found the info on the site very useful in particular the Euro legislation coming in to effect sometime next year.

Once again thanks for your help

Many thanks for your answer that was great help . I just fell in that rest and break are not the same. So simple to the experts. Thanks again.

Thank you for your help !

Thank you Terry

Many thanks for the information you sent to me i have since been put onto 5 days to make up for any lost time.  Once again many thanks

Many thanks ; it has cleared a few theories!

Your assistance has been most helpful. The fact that I didn't draw the lines on my tachographs was pointed out to me by a company who checks the tachographs and the warning was worded as if I had contravened legislation.

Thanks, Richard

thank you for your speedy reply| .Hopefully I can carry on as I am armed with this information.
thanks again, Rob.
