Removals drivng hours
Discussion
Watched the Removal men TV prog last night and one of the clips was a crew of Pickfords removal chaps who'd spent three days loading a huge artic and due to the amount of stuff, they didn't get done till after dark on day three. Couple of the lads disappeared off in a Transit but one of them, all on his own, set off to drive eight hours from Somerset I think to Scotland.
Surely that can't be allowed can it? Is that what you HGV drivers have to do? A full days work then drive for your legal hours as well?

no 15 hours is the maximum in a shift, unless double driving.Surely that can't be allowed can it? Is that what you HGV drivers have to do? A full days work then drive for your legal hours as well?
the guy you refer to, could work loading the truck, but would have to enter these details as a manual entry, unless his digital drivers card was in the wagon, when he started loading, but he must show the loading as other work on the tacho, and have correct breaks etc. its all very boring, and can be quite complicated.
