Question Category: Drivers' hours and rest periods


You've been driving non-stop since 5.00 am. The time is now 9.30 am. Under EU rules, what length of break must you take?


Explanation

"You must take an uninterrupted break of 45 minutes after four-and-a-half hours of driving. This break may be replaced by two shorter breaks of at least 15 and 30 minutes, taken in that order, during the four-and-a-half hours. During any break, you mustn't drive or do any other work."
