For example, the EU drivers’ hours rules and the sector specific working time rules limit the time drivers spend at the wheel and on other duties, thus helping reduce fatigue-related accidents. We will continue to work with the European Commission and other Member States to try to reduce the incidence of fatigue related road accidents.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Devizes answering member printed Claire Perry question first answered 16/10/2014 13:37:11 answering member 3974 label Biography information for Claire Perry
