QUESTION 165Not studied yet

The tachograph has failed and no longer records activity correctly. What must the driver and transport operator do?

EU: tachograph faultCompared with sources

Answer

The driver must manually record the missing activity periods and identification details, and sign the record. The operator must arrange repair at an approved workshop as soon as circumstances permit.

Please note

One week is not a general permission to delay a repair that can be done or to begin any new journey.

A simple explanation

If the vehicle cannot return to the company within one week of the breakdown or its discovery, the repair must be carried out en route. Keep the temporary record sheet with the card or record sheets. A fault does not remove driving, working-time or rest limits.

REMEMBER

Record missing activity; repair the fault as soon as possible.

For an instructor and a small group: choose one C/CE freight transport topic in the Lithuania and EU context. Use your own devices, including a phone and a computer.

  1. 3 questions. In ‘Recall’ mode, first answer in your own words, then read the explanation and mark what needs more review.
  2. A lesson and a diagram. Discuss what they explain and which conditions matter.
  3. One scenario. Decide before revealing the solution. Explain the reasons for your chosen action.
  4. A few quiz questions. Read the explanation for each option. You can finish the quiz early; the remaining questions will be marked as unanswered.
  5. Discussion. Everyone names one useful point and one thing that needs correcting.

How can you share or suggest a correction?

You will find the question link and feedback field below this section. Lessons, diagrams and scenarios have their own ‘Copy link’ button. ‘Suggest a correction’ helps you prepare a note with the specific link and version label. Copy or download the text and pass it on for review.

Discuss: is it easy to find an answer and return to the question? Can you explain the reason and the limits of the rule's application? Which sentence is misleading? Flag any significant legal or safety uncertainty for checking before using the material.
