Legally unless there’s an opt out agreement in place night workers are restricted to 10 hours working time, working time does not include breaks or POA.
If there is an opt out agreement in place you can legally work the same as day workers or whatever hours is specified in the opt out agreement.
Having said that, no-one at a roadside check point will check to see if there’s an opt out agreement in place, so unless your company cares it’s unlikely that anyone else will either 
To be honest, as an agency driver wherever I’ve worked I have never bothered to find out if they have an opt out agreement in place nor have I ever discussed it with an agency.
Why have you asked this again, you’ve got a thread on the same subject that you started 2½ hours before this thread 
Well,
I did try to post it last night with no luck,
so decided to try today morning as couldnt see my post, so did it again, which shown up, then I just checked and looks as posted twice,
Weird, I think one can be removed, as already got the answer,
Cheers
