Possibly but why wait to 4.30. What wrong with 4.00 or 3.40?

The tachograph machine clock always runs a minute fast you take your card out at 4.29 it will automatically turn to 4.30 so yes

that depends on how much driving in that current minute you've done and the age of the tacho fitted

I got told it is an offence as your are already into your 4 hrs 31st min driving as you have completed 4hrs 30 already
I got told this on a cpc course
I'm not sure how valid it is as they might just be protecting you from going over the driving time

I had multiple times 430 and as long as the tacho doesn't change to 431 its NOT an infringement! 1000%

As soon as I go past 30seconds then it counts the next minute for some reason so I stop on 4:29

Place is full of idiots. 4.30 and 1 second is over your 4.30. Yes it is. It does work by the second. Just don’t push it that close. Stop early. Simples.

what an embarrassing comment.
The vu doesn’t record secs it uses them to to calculate the longest activity in the whole calendar min.
If the vu shows 4.30 then that’s exactly what you’ve done. No infringement

as long as you haven't driven more than 4.5hrs no infringement.
