What is the weekly rest period and when must it be taken?
When taking a weekly rest period, a daily rest period must normally be extended to at least 45 consecutive hours. The weekly rest period can be reduced to 36 consecutive hours if taken either where the vehicle is normally based or where the driver is based. If it is taken elsewhere, it can be reduced to minimum of 24 consecutive hours. Each reduction must be made up by an equal period of rest attached to a weekly or daily rest period and taken in one continuous period before the end of the third week following the week in question.
