Ie past 2 weeks mon to Fri have done 87 hours driving. So if I take a reduced weekend rest of 24 hours I can only drive for 3 hours on the Sunday.
Re: 90hr driving

Re: 90hr driving
Bloody hell thats some daily driving your doing there mate. I don't think I've ever gone over 80 hours driving. The joys of RDC's eh? ![]() Jail the Dozy 1.
Re: 90hr driving
If you finished the 90 hours on the Saturday morning you would need to wait until Monday. Drive time is in fixed weeks, your spread over and working hours are between your weekly rests. You could take a reduced rest but you wouldn't be driving anywhere.
Re: 90hr drivingWeekly and fortnightly driving times are in the fixed week (00:00 Monday to 24:00 Sunday).
A weekly rest period does not reset the available weekly/fortnightly driving time. The maximum 60 hours working time per week and average 48 hours working time per week is also in the fixed week.

Re: 90hr drivingIt is 90 hours max in ANY two consecutive weeks so that is 90 max last week + this week then this week + next week etc etc

Re: 90hr driving
Almost. The fixed week starts from 00:00, not 00:01
Re: 90hr driving
Does it not work like "Army" time? I.e. there is no 00:00. It goes from 23:59 and then straight away flicks over to 00:01? Makes sense if you think about it in a clocky sort of way. Whatever I type, it is always with a smile on my face and my tongue firmly in my cheek. Unless I´m serious

Re: 90hr drivingMakes no sense at all, especially thinking of a clock. Every hour on the clock face has a HH:00 position, so why should midnight be any different?

Re: 90hr drivingIf you said 00:00 Tuesday, would that mean Monday-Tuesday? Or Tuesday-Wednesday?
00:01 is a clarification as to what day you mean. 00:01 Tuesday is definitely Tuesday. 00:00 Tuesday isn´t, and it could be either Monday night or Tuesday night. Whatever I type, it is always with a smile on my face and my tongue firmly in my cheek. Unless I´m serious

I wasn't aware the army struggled with telling the time but thankfully the EU commission doesn't appear to have the same problem ![]() Article 4 (i) (EC) 561/2006

Re: 90hr driving
00:00 Tuesday means the minute immediately before the one starting at 00:01 Tuesday, and it's definitely on Tuesday. Nowhere in the Army (or any other branch of the military) do the clocks click over from 23:59 to 00:01. If they did, they'd be out by half an hour after a month... The only time clarification is needed is if you say "midnight on Tuesday" - but I've only ever seen a few novelty clocks which present the time in that sort of format.
Re: 90hr driving
+1 - I’ve never understood how people can get so confused about what day the time 00:00 falls on.
Re: 90hr drivingAny one who had to program a VCR for a programme starting at 00:00 on a "Tuesday night" will know they need to set it to record from Wednesday 00:00 if they want it to work...
Seems obvious to me that the day ends at 23:59:59.99999 not 24:00, and starts at 00:00:00.00000
Re: 90hr drivingIn other words one day ends when the next one starts at 00:00
Re: 90hr drivingInsurance companies start policies from 00:01..

Re: 90hr driving
Theoretically there was no millenium or shouldn't have been according to some on here. It should have gone from 1999 to 2001 ![]()
