Never get another fixed penalty, fine or points on your licence again!

Drivers are required by law to follow certain rules regarding the hours they can work and how long they can drive for. The rules can sometimes be confusing and difficult to understand and it often results in drivers receiving infringements, fines and points on their driving record which in turn can even lead them to losing their job. ​ Our course is designed to help drivers gain a clear understanding of drivers’ hours and the working time directive to ensure compliance with the law. ​ Our course covers everything you need to know as a driver with regards to drivers’ hours and the working time directive. Within the course we cover EU drivers’ hours rules, GB domestic rules and the working time directive which will give the student the knowledge they need to avoid the pitfalls of non-compliance. ​ Our course helps HGV drivers learn how to fully understand drivers’ hours and the working time directive so they can avoid fixed penalties, fines and points. ​ This course will give students a full understanding of the legislation they must follow in order to be compliant with EU drivers hours rules, GB domestic rules and the working time directive. ​ This course can count towards continuous professional development and be noted in your CPD log.
