Digi tachograph explained

Yep, sounds about right.
Here’s what I do…
18:00 arrive back at depot, park on bay, pull card.
Go inside and hand all paperwork and stuff in.
18:30 clock out.

Next Day
Clock in, anytime before official shift time of 10:30. Let’s say I clock in at 10:00 today.
10:30 start to gather up stuff for the day, manifest, tools, HHT, phone etc.
11:00 out to puddle jumper. Card in.
Manual entry consists of…
Other Work from 18:00 yesterday, to clock out time 18:30
Rest from 18:30-10:30 today
Other Work from 10:30 today up to present time.
Drive on.

Other people may pop in and give you the correct procedure but that’s what works for me :slight_smile:

That’s how I do it and have never received any kind of negative feedback from a Transport Manager.

Ofcourse some places with horses and stetsons in the back would rather you didn’t record the other time between card out and shift end (Time to give in paperwork etc)
