1.All stopovers that last longer than 45 h are treated as regular rests.

2.According to Art. 8 par. 6 of Regulation (EC) No. 561/2006, the program looks for optimal reduced rests longer than 24 h and shorter than 45 h (at least 1 regular weekly rest and 1 reduced weekly rest in any two consecutive weeks are required, and the next weekly rest that shall start no later than at the end of six 24-hour periods from the end of the previous weekly rest period is also required).

3.According to Art. 8 par. 6 of Regulation (EC) No. 561/2006, every reduced weekly rest (shorter than 45 hours) shall be compensated. The rule does not apply to the rests shorter than 45 hours marked as regular ones – in such a case an offence is generated due to the reduction of required regular weekly rest.

4.If a regular rest or a reduced rest cannot be defined in compliance with the requirements set forth above in item 2., the program defines optimal rests shorter than 24 hours.

5.If during two consecutive weeks there were one regular weekly rest and one reduced weekly rest, the latter shorter than 24 hours, the program imposes a penalty due to reduction of the rest to 24 hours and requires an en bloc compensation of the whole period to 45 hours. If the compensation is not taken, a penalty is imposed due to reduction of the rest to 45 hours.

6.If during two consecutive weeks two reduced rests occur, the program – basing on Art. 8 par. 6 – treats the longer rest as a regular one (45 hours) and imposes a penalty due to making the regular rest shorter, the penalty being consistent with the penalty tariff applied by road inspection units.
