That’s a very good question Yes any time sat behind the wheel I charge of the vehicle counts towards driving time Driving jobs from what I can tell have different employment laws when it comes to breaks Although I would have to check employment law for retail to be sure And thank you I appreciate the compliment

Regarding breaks your information is not entirely correct, ie you need more than a 30 minute break if you drive for more than 8 and half hours. GB Domestic Rules - "If you work for at least 8 hours and 30 minutes, you must not drive for more than 7 hours and 45 minutes during this time. You must also take breaks that add up to at least 45 minutes. You must take the extra break at some point between working for 8 hours and 30 minutes and the end of your shift. "

Yes you are correct when I made this I was going on what the company says for some reason the part about 8.5 hours or more having to have a 45 min break seems to be ignored I have brought this up with the union but nothings changed so I can only assume there’s a loop hole somewhere

What if you need to go toilet when driving, in my current job I just pull over and go in a bush or pub or whatever?

Five and a half hours driving, then a break, but the companies say that you can go for up to eight and a half hours, or is it eight hours, can't remember, providing that you have so many minutes at either end of the route which total 45 minutes within that period, then half an hour off, or finish your duty. Completely legal but bloody hell it is a killer. In London, we have to fill out a log card, a company requirement rather than a legal one, scribbling in the arrival and departure times, as well as the "turns", or curtailments,(lost mileage), that the controllers normally throw at you at the last minute, meaning possible confrontation with the passengers. Ye Gods, every PSV Driver wants to do the job properly, but give us a decent, do able schedule, I speak as someone in the game for forty plus years.

With B&H its a 39 hour week starting on the 5 day week once youve been there a while you can go on the list for the 4 day rotas i think theres a part time rota but i dont know anything about that under certain circumstances you maybe be able to get your own rota line ie do the same every week obviously different companys have different policies
