Follow new rulle after november 2017 can still sleep in truck 45 +hours if this lay by not danger .From 1 November 2017, DVSA will start to fine drivers up to £300 if they spend their full weekly rest break in their vehicle in places where it causes a problem. For example, if a lorry driver spends their full break in the cab of their lorry in a layby.gov.uk/government/news/driv … al-driversRulle not show who in UK not legally taked full 45 hours everywhere,just not legal in place where it causes a problem
About bloody time if what you say is right, a sleeper cab by it’s very nature is for sleeping in.
Doing a driver for parking in a bloody stupid place is one thing, I can see the reason for that.
Putting a blanket ban on in cab weekend rests is just plain bloody silly.
Just because a few on here have grudges and problems with foreign drivers does not justify this bloody stupid rule.
Perhaps the UK authorities are taking a sensible approach over this?
That is you can stay in your cab, but you must have access to at least basic toilet and washing facilities. Just a shame there is a lack of those facilities, especially as it will probably mean many drivers coming to the UK for their weekly rest (that’ll have Winseer heading for his bunker 
) to avoid France, Belgium and Germany, which have far larger fines and are enforcing the latest interpretation of the weekly rest regulations.
