Correct answer
The duration of driving activity recorded under the rules.
It is the duration of driving activity recorded under the rules, through the tachograph or the prescribed manual records. It is neither rest nor the whole working day. When a tachograph malfunctions, the required manual records are not optional and do not allow repair to be deferred indefinitely: Regulation 165/2014 requires identification, signature and incorrectly recorded periods to be entered, with repair as soon as circumstances permit.
