This could present drivers with the perfect opportunity to grab a tasty-filled tortilla, or indeed a meal of any kind, but it is the rest from driving that is really important. If drivers were to drive continuously without a break, they’d run the risk or getting tired and making mistakes, which no one can afford to do on our busy roads, so breaks are essential.
All commercial heavy goods vehicles must be fitted with a digital tachograph to record their driving. This includes speed, distance travelled and the amount of time they’ve been driving. The drive mode is activated automatically when the vehicle is in motion.
All drivers must be properly trained on how to use the tachograph in their vehicle to ensure it is being done correctly. All tachographs should be calibrated, inspected and re-calibrated in line with the rules.
