Question WTD

I wouldn’t worry about WTD as nobody enforces it. It’s more of an operator’s compliance than a drivers responsibility. Just manage your drivers hours correctly and all the other regulations will be fine.

The problem with that is that companies expect drivers to comply with the working time regulations, well decent companies do anyway.

Fail to comply with the working time regulations and you can expect infringements to mount up.

ROG:
In every case I have come across it is the drivers responsibility to give the company the info and for the company to keep the driver WTD compliant
Drivers do not have admin departments with computers to keep track

ROG:
How can a driver get a company infringement when the company is keeping track of the WTD weekly and averages :question:

6 hour break rule and daily break rule for drivers but not the rest

So after saying that it’s up-to the company to keep drivers WTD compliant now you’re saying that drivers can get infringements for some working time regulations, talk about back stepping.

Nowhere have I mentioned the 48 hour week or anything else specific, what I said was that if a driver concentrates solely on the drivers hours regulations and forgets about the working time regulations he/she is likely to get infringements, and now after some bull[zb] about talking to 20 to 30 drivers about it and seemingly insinuating that I was wrong you’re apparently agreeing :unamused:
