If you got the subtraction wrong then technically that would be an infringement !!
Either subtract correctly or not bother - both are ok
No, never was a legal requirement and haven’t heard it had changed either (so far)
I never fill in the total mileage.
Don’t tell me, your company say it is ?
I think Geebee45 answered this very question some months back, and iirc even the incorrect subtraction would be treated as a mistake.
The chart has a centre field which asks for;
Full Name (in any order, surname, forenames, forenames, surnames. matters not)
Start Place
Finish Place
Start Date
Finish Date
Registration Number
Finish Kilometre
Start Kilometre
Total (Optional)
Yup, i had it on paper from one firm that it is now ileagal not to put in your total milage and ive had to sign infringments for getting it wrong
I always left it blank before

Centrefield entriesA driver is required to enter the following information on the centrefield of a tachograph chart that he is using to record his activities:
surname and first name (the law does not stipulate which order the names are put — but your employer may have a policy on this);
the date and place where the use of the record sheet begins and ends. The year may be written in full or abbreviated — so both ‘2007’ and ‘07’ are acceptable. If the start and finish places are the same, both must be written on the chart — ditto marks are not acceptable;
the registration numbers(s) of vehicle(s) driven (which should be entered before departing on a new vehicle);
the time at which any change of vehicle takes place; and
the odometer readings:
—
at the start of the first journey;
—
at the end of the last journey; and
—
at the time of any change of vehicle, recording the readings from both vehicles.
Note that the ‘total kms’ field does not have to be completed.
