Need help with tacho usages please

Newdriver1:

  1. For the 6hr rule does this start as soon as I put my card in?

So if I put my card in at 9:00am would I need to have a 15min break before 3:00pm?
And then for 6hr-9hr would I need a 15min break between 3:01pm and 6:00pm?

15 min break needed by 3pm
3 to 6pm no 15 break needed if your shift is say 12 hours long
Assuming a driving time break is not needed before any of those WTD breaks

Legal 12.5 shift example where the driving time is not more than 4.5 hours
work 6
break 15
work 5
break 30
work 1

OOPS :blush: = AS OVER 9 HOURS WORK THEN IT NEEDS AN EXTRA 15 BREAK
SILLY ME :unamused:
Have changed second 15 to a 30
