But it's the part that limits the usable hours of a truck most.
A self driving truck can pretty much drive 24/7 but the driver has to rest more than half the day.
Truck drivers are allowed to work 70h per week.
- londons_explore 10y agoI assumed all trucks stop at a truck stop and the driver sleeps while another driver continues the journey? That way the valuable truck and cargo never stop moving. Is that not typically the case?
- chefkoch 10y agoAt least in continental europe single drivers are the vast majority.
