What is the minimum daily rest period (without any reduction) when you are driving alone?

The law requires a minimum daily rest period of 11 hours for drivers who are alone, with no reductions. This rest period is important to ensure that drivers are well rested, reducing the risk of fatigue-related accidents. The rule comes from EU driver’s hours regulations, which are strictly enforced for professional drivers of buses and trucks. The 11-hour rest must be taken in one block and cannot be split or shortened when you’re driving alone. This ensures maximum recovery time between workdays, which helps maintain road safety.
