Guys, im part of a three man team driving nights and require a little help regarding hours/ rest. we start our week sunday night about 9.00, one will drive one night the other the following. we both will finish early on the coming saturday about 3.00am, each only clocking up about 18 to twenty driver hours each and having a two day break in the week.(rolling break for each of us)… i am about to start a two week holiday cover and will be expected to cover the guys hours, this means starting at 9 on sunday driving about 6 hours every other night (total driver/other work about 10 hrs) finishing on coming saturday about 3am,probably not having the two day rest in the week. back in on the sunday at 9.00pm to carry on for the next week. i think some where in this two week period im going to have to tell the boss i cant come in to work cos im out of hours.
hope i have explained this well enough for some one to give an answer.

If you don’t have the two day rest in at least one of those weeks you will not be able to go back in on the Sunday at the end of the second week at 21:00 as you will need a 45 hour weekly rest period for that week. Other than that I don’t see a problem based on info given.
