Rules on drivers’ hours and tachographs for vehicles used for the carriage of goods in Great Britain and abroad.

Change made:
Tachograph rules – Section 4.3 Common rules Recording other work: For a fixed week in which EU-regulated driving takes place, drivers must keep a full record of periods of other work and availability. For a fixed week in no EU-regulated driving takes place, drivers must keep a record of periods of other work and availability. They can record this in blocks. Drivers undertaking international journeys to, from and through the EU should keep full daily records for the previous 28 days, including days and weeks in which no EU-regulated driving took place. This is because enforcement agencies in other countries may have different requirements for how to record activities for the previous 28 days. Rest and other days off: European Commission officials have confirmed that attestation forms for drivers’ hours records are still available and should be accepted in the context of journeys involving EU member states.
