Yes you are right.

This might help. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=48250&p=549622

You can change the local displayed time to whatever you want it to show. You cannot change the time used to log the various modes on a digi by more than 1 minute per week as it always works on UTC time regardless of time of year or time zone.
Thanks thats great the map is very useful bet i’ll be on the border of a region overnight! guess i’ll just have to look out for road signs.
they are not that bothered providing you are reasonably close

I know what you meant and if you park in Gib for the night you enter EC on the digi tacho for end country and again for begin country the next morning.
For places in Europe which are regarded as part of the EU and don’t have their own country code in the list you use EC. For countries which are not part of the EU and don’t have their own country code in the list, Serbia for instance, you use EUR.
Oh and if you are completely lost and don’t know where you are there is a listing in the country codes you could use, UNK for unknown.

They are part of the EU albeit with exemptions in some areas such as customs and agricultural policies and have been since Britain joined in '73. Also, after campaigning for years they have been voting in the elections for the European Parliament, which only citizens of EU member countries can do, for the past 5 or 6 years so you would use EC.
You really should know better than to listen to what the police tell you with regard to tacho regulations.
Gibraltar
Gibraltar is a British overseas territory located near the southernmost tip of the Iberian Peninsula and overlooking the Strait of Gibraltar, sharing a border with Spain to the north. It is part of the EU, having joined the European Economic Community with the United Kingdom in 1973. Article 355(3) (ex Article 299(4)) applies the treaty to “the European territories for whose external relations a Member State is responsible”, a provision which in practice only applies to Gibraltar. Notwithstanding its being part of the EU, Gibraltar is outside the customs union and VAT area and is exempted from the Common Agricultural Policy. As a separate jurisdiction to the UK the Gibraltar Parliament transposes EU directives into local law.
Owing to a declaration lodged by the United Kingdom with the EEC in 1982 Gibraltarians were to be counted as British nationals for the purposes of Community law. This was notwithstanding that they were not all, at the time, British citizens but many were British Overseas Territories citizens. As such Gibraltarians enjoyed European Union citizenship from its creation in the Maastricht Treaty. All Gibraltarians have since been granted full British citizenship.
Despite their status as EU citizens resident in the EU, elections to the European Parliament were not held in Gibraltar until 2004. The inclusion resulted from the European Court of Human Rights’ ruling in Matthews v. United Kingdom which deemed that Gibraltar’s exclusion violated Article 3 of Protocol 1 to the European Convention on Human Rights. In the 2004 European Parliament election the territory formed part of the South West England constituency of the United Kingdom. The inclusion was unsuccessfully challenged by Spain.
The Schengen police cooperation rules apply in Gibraltar, although Gibraltar does not form part of the control-free travel area, and border checks are still performed at the border between Gibraltar and Spain.
well that’ll comi very handy next time they say “we’re not british” actually they are
