Lorry drivers are not allowed to drive for more than 48 hours per week to ensure safety on the roads and prevent fatigue-related accidents. Regulations, such as those set by the European Union and other governing bodies, aim to limit driving hours and promote regular rest periods. This helps maintain the alertness and well-being of drivers, ultimately reducing the risk of collisions and improving overall road safety.

How does the weather affect lorry drivers?

If the weather is bad i.e. wet/snowy/icy this may delay the lorry driver delivering his load as he would have the drive slowly and also the other traffic would be driving slowly too which would cost even more time.
