Sounds like an uneducated / uninformed muppet who thinks he knows the law, but I don’t get where he got you DROVE 6hrs 30 without a break??
The machine does the work for them, so how did he get it wrong?
You got pulled onto the hard shoulder for a tacho check?

My reply would’ve been “you will be though” followed up with a letter to the head of the traffic division.
