What does a 34-hour restart do for a driver who uses it?
- A.It adds 34 driving hours to the same week
- B.It provides a new 60/70-hour weekly total after at least 34 consecutive hours off duty or in the sleeper berth
- C.It replaces the need for any daily rest
- D.It erases a crash record
Correct answer
B. It provides a new 60/70-hour weekly total after at least 34 consecutive hours off duty or in the sleeper berth
Why
A restart of at least 34 consecutive hours resets the weekly cumulative calculation so the driver begins a new period. It is optional, and many drivers simply work within the rolling weekly cap instead.
