After 8 hours of cumulative driving time, what break is required before you may drive again?
- A.A 30-minute interruption of driving, which may be on duty not driving, off duty, or in the sleeper berth
- B.A full 10-hour reset
- C.A 15-minute walk-around only
- D.No break is ever required
Correct answer
A. A 30-minute interruption of driving, which may be on duty not driving, off duty, or in the sleeper berth
Why
Once you reach 8 cumulative hours of driving, you may not drive again until you take a break of at least 30 minutes in an eligible status. Time spent fueling or doing other on-duty not-driving work can count, because the rule interrupts driving, not all duty.
