If I start work at 6 am. Max out my 10 driving hours and go on rest at 7pm. Reduce rest to 9 hours. Can I drive again before 6.am or does it reset as soon as my rest finishes. I'm wondering because id have driven more than 10 hours in 24 hours. Sorry if silly question I've just started nights out.

You can drive again after you've had 9 hours rest.

Incorrect. There is no limit on driving time within a 24 hour period. It is possible to do upto 13.5 legally.

on same footing driving time resets Sunday night. So if u work 4 on 4 off for example.
U could do ten hours sat 10 sun 10 Mon and 10 Tuesday legally. Absurd as it is.

the 10 hr drive rule is absurd as it should be the same for all drivers not different because of your shift pattern

I'd have 11 off seems a waste only working 13 hours and then reducing rest. Especially if you end up needing a 15 hour shift to get back on a Friday!!!

If you start at 0600 and finish at 1900 then that's a 13 hour shift have your 11 hours rest if you can if you reduce to 9 or 10 hours rest that will class as a 15 hour shift so don't waste it if you can help it

reducing my rest to 9 hours. Means i can get home past the dartford crossing and the build up at clacket lane. Hit yard for 6.30 and that's me done for the day. The 11 hours would just have me sitting in traffic. Id like 11 hours but i want to benefit myself

it will be classed as a reduced rest. Shift length is immaterial, not mentioned in the regs, only rests.

it doesn't count as a 15. You might be surprised to know that there is no mention of duty limits in the regulations, only a Rest Period.

it does count as a 15 as it’s a reduced rest, the op would be using a 15 up regardless of shift left as he’s having reduced rest of 9 hrs

the regulations are clear. You must have 11 hours rest within the 24 hour period, this may be reduced to a minimum of 9 hours on no more than three occasions between Weekly Rest Periods.
There is no mention of how long a duty period can be in the regulations.

so what would happen do you think if you had say 2 reduced rests and had 3 15’s bk to bk??
9 hrs rest is still classed as a 15 hr shift previous

15 hours duty is reduced rest
Anything worked over 13 hours is reduced rest and any rest under 11 hours is reduced rest
Please point out to me anywhere in the regulations that it mentions a 15 hour day

so what would happen do you think if you had say 2 reduced rests and had 3 15’s bk to bk??
9 hrs rest is still classed as a 15 hr shift previous
you've had 3 reduced daily rests.
yes or 04.00 either 11 or 9 off
can do 9/3 9/3 if you want or the job requires it

Click on that and download the simplified guide. It's better worded than the full documents and a few that have commented on here could do with having a read as well.

Technically you can do 6 shifts in 5 days. As long as had daily rest it’s irrelevant of drive in 24hr period.

you don’t half talk some rubbish. Rates have absolutely naff all to do with how much a driver does in 24hrs.
It’s all to do with how little profit they need to make per lorry on the fleet, so with 600 lorries for instance, making £5 profit per lorry per day, 6 days a week is a grand total of £18,000 profit.
To get the same profit margin running 200 lorries for 6 days a week, you’d need to be making £15 profit per lorry, per day, which increases your rate charged to the customer.
The customer will ALWAYS go with the lower price, hence why Stobart upset quite a number of hauliers when they took on the Morrisons contract during Covid.. They offered a lower rate!

that us how stobbarts fucked all our wages down you muppet they forced prices down for everyone so no one could afford to pay decent rates of pay. If a company only has 10 trucks it can't compete with stobbarts. When ever another company got big enough like irwins stobbarts just bought them out. In any other sector that would have been seen as them having a monopoly on the market but as they were keeping transport costs down the government turned a blind eye which has led to the industry being f**ked.

Stobart wages have increased year on year for the last 15 years. Smaller companies don’t compete with the likes of Stobart, Culina, Great Bear, Turners, DSV, DFDS, Amazon, or Maritime. Instead they work with them, they subcontract.
Maybe with the right attitude, and less of the name calling (because that’s the only way you know how to try and prove your point), you too could earn a decent wage in a week. Good luck

Who would you rather pay? 35 individual invoices or varying amounts, or one invoice and let that contractor deal with all the subcontractors?
Big business making money, and with the right attitude, and less name calling (because that’s the only way you know how to try and get your point across), you too could earn a decent wage every week. On that I wish you good luck, I think you’ll need it

stobbarts wages may have increased but probably at 1% per year. And you are making my point for me. Stobbarts have cornered the market, forced prices down and forced smaller companies to comply or go bust. And have forced wages down so much it's ridiculous. And don't get me started on amazon the money they pay and the working conditions are appalling.
The company I work for have just given us over 10% pay rise and an 8% pay rise last year. And I earned very good money for this year and I don't night out. So your righteous attitude can do one.

Stobarts been bang more times than a brothel keepers front door and made small hauliers fold at the same time.... Tesco.... Culina.... Morrisons have all bailed them out.... Ask yourself why.... Sh*t rates.... Working 24/7 shit work patterns.... Ie doing exactly what the cab rats on here are doing road haulage needs a proper governing body.... 12 hours work in any 24hr period and 12 hours rest in the same...... Stack shelves in aldi for 70hrs and you are on more money..... FACT
