How Long Does It Take to Have a Co-Driver When Driving a Large Vehicle?

[VanStephanie]

Generally, a co-driver is required when driving a large vehicle for more than four hours. Reasons for having a co-driver: A co-driver should be assigned because long-distance travel requires avoiding fatigue driving, which involves human life safety, so it is necessary to have someone in the co-driver seat. Role of the co-driver: During driving, the driver's attention is mainly focused on the road ahead and vehicle operation. When encountering unfamiliar road conditions, if the driver diverts most of their attention to checking navigation, it is not only unsafe but can also lead to increased anxiety. At this point, the person in the co-driver seat should assist with navigation to reduce the driver's operational burden.
