Ask the MAC


With Dan Crutchington, Manager - Compliance Information, Logistics UK

 

Your papers!

Q: Our driver was stopped roadside and asked to produce their records. Once they handed them over, the driver was told that it was not a legal printout. What does this mean as they were printed from the same vehicle they were driving?

A: In this instance, the driver has created the wrong type of printout. In the menu, the driver has printed in local time instead of UTC. On a local time printout, it would state that it is not a legal printout across the top.

 

All bought and paid for

Q: The company has decided to run a CPC course and has told the drivers that it is already paid for and that they should attend. Would this count towards their working time?

A: This would come down to whether the drivers are under instruction. For drivers who are attending CPC training courses under instruction, this time does count towards their working time.

If the drivers are attending the training course under their own volition and are not under instruction to attend, or at risk of any consequences for failing to attend or by leaving early, this time does not have to count towards working time.
