What is the longest time a solo driver can have between 7-hour breaks?
17 hours elapsed time – irrespective of whether the driver works for that whole period. Example: A commercial vehicle driver may work for 10 hours and then the vehicle breaks down for 4 hours and the driver climbs in to the bunk and rests. When the driver recommences work he is only allowed to work for an additional 3 hours before the maximum of 17 hours has elapsed.
