Compliance with these regulations is not only important for avoiding fines and delays but also for ensuring the safety and efficiency of the transport sector.

The purpose of this regulation is to improve road safety and protect the health of drivers. The regulation prescribes the number of hours a driver is permitted to drive and the amount of rest he or she must take.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"1,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"1,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Maximum driving time:<\/b> 9 hours per day (may be extended to 10 hours in exceptional cases, but no more than twice a week).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"1,1,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"1,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Minimum rest period:<\/b> 11 hours of rest per day (can be reduced to 9 hours, but no more than three times a week).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"1\"><b data-path-to-node=\"1\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">German Road Traffic Act (StVO)<\/b><\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"2\">The German Road Traffic Act (<i data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"29\">Stra\u00dfenverkehrs-Ordnung<\/i>, abbreviated as StVO) regulates road safety and other traffic rules.
