Drivers hours guard

Hi, I’ve recently passed both my class 1 and 2 licences and am getting together things i’ll need when i get a job trucking. Would anyone reccomend getting a drivers hours guard or am i better off saving my £50?
Thanks
Matt

If you drive a vehicle with a digital tachograph the Drivers Hour Guard will be virtually useless, so I’d have to say save the money until you know it will be of use to you.

Depends if you know how to scroll through the menus on a tacho :wink:

Or if you can see it as some are a bit high for me to see

Poss just go buy a kitchen timer ( not from a lorry park thou )

Thanks. will take your advise and wait and see if i’ll need it.

I’ve got the trucker timer app on my phone, cost a quid or 2 and works brilliantly…
