Tachograph offences are the most common LGV crimes in England and Wales, closely followed by hours-law offences. The majority of these offences are the result of the unwitting actions of drivers and operators who just don't understand the law's requirements.
This new edition of the unique and practical guide unravels the complicated law relating to tachograph use and drivers' hours. Fully endorsed by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport, this handy pocket guide identifies: *which rules apply to which drivers, *which exemptions apply and to whom, *which records must be kept and how this should be done, *what effect working time regulations have on the transport industry, *the minimum wage rule, *the basic principles of digital tachographs, *the implementation of the Working Time Directive for road haulage drivers, * the EU's proposed changes to the existing drivers' hours law, *new law on the introduction of Digital tachographs, *advice to drivers using Smart Cards.
The Guide provides the driver and truck operator with everything they need to know about compliance with the law on these difficult matters.
