Truck Drivers and hours behind the wheel.

    ​For years now drivers of heavy vehicles have been restricted as to how many hours they can drive without a break, quite rightly so due to safety reasons.

    China it appears, using technology, has now developed a system whereby the drivers do not have to take the current mandatory breaks.  Video did not make clear if any other restrictions apply but seems a fascinating system nevertheless.

    Good or bad, not sure?

    Thanks for the video.  China really has it together on technology.  I still think drivers should have breaks.  Even allowing some technology working for you can still pose stress to some extent because you're still listening or watching something and not getting a break from that repeat activity.
