Last one!!!
Now this is a bit arkward as I’m supposed to fill a tacho in, but if you explain I’ll do my best!!
On the tacho chart attached please complete ONLY those details you would be required to enter manually in order to comply with the law including:
i. Centrefield entries on the front & back of the chart for the dates, start & finish locations and vehicles including the change of vehicle and time of change. Bit confused about the change of vehicle
ii. The grid on the back of the chart to show your activity when AWAY from the vehicle. is this when the vehicle is in for repair (would I take the tacho disc out at this point?
iii. A record of the time your previous daily rest ended & the current daily rest started manually on the chart.
a. You start work at 0530hrs on 7th March 2009 at Leeds. I done!
b. You get into vehicle ER 55 TEP & insert your chart, the odo is reading 234765. done!
c. At 1230hrs ‘en route’ your vehicle needs emergency service so you are booked in & at the time the odo reading is 235035.
d. The vehicle is in for repair between 1230-1330hrs so you take a break.
e. At 1330hrs you get back into ER 55 TEP, the odo is now reading 235040.
At this point I become confused as I didn’t drive the last 5km/miles
f. At 1930hrs you run out of driving time at Warrington, so a driver comes to collect your vehicle, the odo is reading 235326.
At this point I would remove my tacho & continue on the rear
g. You drive back the car in which the relief driver came, returning to Lymm at 2000hrs.
I’m just a little confused as they’ve made it bloody hard!!!
