".
We voted for limiting the working hours and the driving time for so-called self-employed drivers, a category whose existence has until now been one way of getting around the law in this area.
We also condemn the fact that rest periods are excluded from working time, which means that the driver is not able to use this time as he wishes.
Furthermore, it is unacceptable, having stated that ‘if night work is performed, the daily working time shall not exceed eight
hours in each twenty-four-hour period’, you immediately add that this period may be extended to 10 hours, as long as the average of 8 hours is respected in a longer reference period.
It is unacceptable for an ‘average’ working time to be calculated, since accumulated tiredness on any given day, beyond the 8 hours, is not relieved by a monthly or annual average, with the risks that this implies for the safety of the driver and of other road users."@en1
