answer text

The Department for Transport is determined to help keep supply chains moving up and down the country despite COVID-19. That is why we authorised a temporary relaxation of the enforcement of the drivers’ hours rules for the whole haulage industry; which began on Monday 23 March 2020 and will run until Sunday 31 May 2020. This was done on the understanding that driver welfare and road safety must not be compromised. Employers remain responsible for the health and safety of their employees and other road users. We have not relaxed the drivers’ hours rules in the passenger transport sector.
