Weekly Rest Crackdown? [Merged]

Andrejs:
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-drivers

Rulle not show who in UK not legally taked full 45 hours everywhere,just not legal in place where it causes a problem

The sensible approach. Many EE drivers are on a pittance for a wage let alone any night out allowance. Trying to make them take weekly rest out of the cab just isnt financially practical for many of them. Fair enough if the truck is parked somewhere dangerous/ causing an obstruction then fair enough fine them but if not just leave them alone i say…
