What Are the Hours of Service Regulations?

Because trucks cause so much damage to others on the road when an accident happens, truck drivers and the companies they work for are required to follow more regulations than other drivers. One of these rules is called the hours of service regulation which are primarily aimed at preventing truckers from being overworked, and in turn, preventing fatigued driving accidents. According to these rules:

  • Truck drivers can work up to 14 hours in a single workday
  • Truck drivers can only drive for 11 hours with the remaining hours being spent on rest or meal breaks.
  • Drivers must rest for at least 10 consecutive hours at the end of each workday
  • Truck drivers are required to take days off work at regular intervals
