NEW AND WANNABE DRIVERS (INTERACTIVE)

Below is the breakdown of my tacho from my days work the over day.

Could some of you ‘oldies’ tell me if I was fully legal as I am still very confused about what i’m doing!

0600 Start Driving
0730 Arrive 1st drop start unloading
0850 finish unloading start 15 min break
0905 start driving
1130 Arrive drops 2/3 start unloading
1210 Finish unloading have 1 hour break to 1310

Now If whats in my head is right I can now drive for a further 4 1/2 hours before another break??

Anyway
1310 Start unloading drop 4 (all in same place so no driving)
1410 - 1500 Drive to pick up
1500 Arrive pick up but no loading for me just sit in cab and wait (unsure what the mode switch should be on so I put it on other work)
1530 Leave Hull
1630 15 mins break
1800 Arrive depot day ends

So guys over to you was this a legit day or have I totally [zb] up?

By the way I’m getting an hour guard on pay day so hopefully this will help!

well dan in the morning ( 1st 4.5 hrs) you drove a total of 3hrs 55mins with a total break of 1hr 15mins and that completes your morning drive

now in the afternoon you start driving at 14.10hrs and arrive 15.00hrs a total of 50mins driving,you then leave 15.30 i presume you drove for next hr till 16.30 ( as it’s not stated) you then have 15 min break till 16.45.16.45 you leave to return to depot at 18.00hrs which is 1hr 15mins driving.
you total drive for 2nd ( 4.5) is

3hrs 05mins driving
15 min break
total for day is7hrs driving with 1.1/2hr break

as you can see dan you are legal m8 and no probs with it there

You were spot on with 15-00 arrive for load and wait. You are not able to freely dispose of your time, so you chose the corrext mode switch - other work :wink:.
