Iโ€™d guess if your being paid for it then, you need to use your card. If your doing as unpaid chairty work, then Iโ€™d say no, it wont fall under Tacho regs.

Unless itโ€™s over 7.5t as thatโ€™s the limit for private use.

If it is a vehicle of over 7.5t then you will need to use your card and the driving will count towards your weekly and fortnightly totals. You will also require a daily rest and it will not count as a part of your weekly rest.
