The Community Drivers' Hours and Recording Equipment Regulations 2007
These Regulations facilitate compliance with the new Community Drivers' Hours Regulation (Regulation (EC) No 561/2006), which had full effect as from 11th April 2007, replacing the former Community Drivers' Hours Regulation (Council Regulation (EEC) No 3820/85). These Regulations revoke the Community Drivers' Hours and Recording Equipment (Exemptions and Supplementary Provisions) Regulations 1986, as amended, that implemented certain discretionary, national exemptions allowed under Council Regulation (EEC) No 3820/85; and make consequential amendments to Part VI of the Transport Act 1968, as amended, which sets out the drivers' hours enforcement penalties (in relation to both the EC and domestic drivers' hours rules).
