UK Drivers’ hours and tachographs handbook: EU and AETR rules on drivers’ hours

This guide gives general guidance about drivers? and tachograph rules for goods vehicles.It reflects the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency?s current enforcement policy. It does not reflect interpretation of the law in other countries. This guide provides advice to drivers and operators of goods vehicles whether used privately or commercially. It explains the rules for drivers? hours and the keeping of records and updates previous guidance from 2011. The EU regulations also place a responsibility on others in the supply chain such as consignors freight forwarders contractors sub-contractors and driver agencies. People working in these sectors of the road haulage industry may benefit from an understanding of the guidance offered here. Within Great Britain (GB) either GB domestic or EU rules may apply. For international journeys either the EU rules or the European Agreement Concerning the Work of Crews of Vehicles Engaged in International Road Transport (AETR) may apply. Which set of rules applies depends on the type of driving and the type of vehicle being used and in the case of international journeys the countries to be visited.
