Revision question · Drivers' hours and rest periods

A vehicle fitted with an analogue tachograph has two drivers. How should they use the tachograph?

Revision material from the imported DVSA bank includes source-checked Lanekind learning corrections. These corrections are not newly issued official examination questions, and practice does not reproduce a live test paper.

Answer options

Use a separate tachograph chart for every driving period

Use their own tachograph chart

Not use the tachograph for such duties

Use their own tachograph chartThis was the right answer

Your tachograph chart is your personal work record and should only reflect the hours that you drive or do other work. The law says that these charts should be held on file by your employer for at least one year. Enforcement officers can ask for charts to be handed over for inspection.
