Is driving for over ten hours tiring?
1 Answers
Driving for over ten hours can be quite exhausting. Typically, cross-province transport trucks that operate from dawn to dusk are driven by a team of 2-3 people taking turns. Driving continuously for over ten hours alone constitutes fatigued driving, which is extremely dangerous. Below are relevant details about fatigued driving: Definition of fatigued driving: When a driver operates a vehicle continuously for more than 4 hours without taking a break of at least 20 minutes, it is considered fatigued driving. Requirements for fatigued driving: To better enforce regulations against fatigued driving, traffic police authorities mandate that large trucks, long-distance buses, and similar vehicles must be equipped with driving recorders by their respective companies. Additionally, these vehicles are required to have GPS tracking and monitoring systems installed.
