Truck Drivers Hours
Hi - this is Karla's husband Simon. I've done some searching on the Internet about drivers hours in Canada, can somebody please put it into layman's terms. I do understand it slightly but reading it on this forum I'm sure I will understand it a little bit better. Cheers in advance. SY :)

Re: Truck Drivers Hours
You can drive for 15hrs and work 18hrs a day above the 60th , Not that I will be ever going up there :)
Basically a minimum of 10 hrs off duty in 24 with 8 consecutive hrs off Loads more permutations here : http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/r.../SOR-2005-313/ |

Re: Truck Drivers Hours
A truck driver can drive for a maximum of 11 hours per day.The current rule allows 10 hours of driving within a 15-hour on-duty period after eight hours of off-duty time.

Re: Truck Drivers Hours
Driving a dump truck can give you the opportunity to work with closely with other members of this trade. When you learn, how to drive a dump truck you can also see about the getting your own truck and hiring yourself out as a freelance driver on many different of projects around your area. This means being able to keep a larger share of the fees you charge, though you will also be a responsible for the cost of maintaining your truck yourself. Dump truck drivers regularly make as much as $19.00 an hour with time spent almost solely driving trucks back and forth with a load to dump it. But it may be driving a tow truck is more to your liking... When the people are in need of someone to tow their vehicle, when it breaks down, the tow truck driver is someone they are always happy to see. Tow truck drivers working for someone else can expect to make anywhere from $12.00 to $16.00 an hour, though owner/operators of a tow truck can charge anywhere from $75.00 to $150.00 per tow, + additional fees for extra mileage over a set rate. :):):)
