@Klaas. I much preferred the 8 hour sleep window, as it aligns more with what is appropriate for myself locally, it all depends on what rulebook you’re looking at 😉 For example, I live in North America, and the local driving hour/sleeping hour requirements are as follows:
[spoiler]Scheduling — Driving North of Latitude 60°N
Application
37 Sections 38 to 54 apply in respect of driving north of latitude 60°N.
Driving and On-duty Time
[b]38 (1) No motor carrier shall request, require or allow a driver to drive and no driver shall drive after the driver has accumulated 15 hours of driving time.[/b]
(2) No motor carrier shall request, require or allow a driver to drive and no driver shall drive after the driver has accumulated 18 hours of on-duty time.
Mandatory Off-duty Time
[b]39 (1) No motor carrier shall request, require or allow a driver to drive and no driver shall drive after the driver has accumulated more than 15 hours of driving time or 18 hours of on-duty time unless they take at least 8 consecutive hours of off-duty time before driving again.[/b]
(2) No motor carrier shall request, require or allow a driver to drive and no driver shall drive if more than 20 hours of time has elapsed between the conclusion of the most recent period of 8 or more consecutive hours of off-duty time and the beginning of the next period of 8 or more consecutive hours of off-duty time.[/spoiler]
To sum, it allows up to 15 hours of consecutive driving time, with an 8 hour sleep before you are “Reset”
