Compensation for the shortened weekly rest period of the driver is an additional rest which should be taken:
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
C. once.
Explanation
The question is about how to take the compensation for a reduced weekly rest period. The driver must take it in one go ("once") - answer C.
The EU Regulation states that any reduction of a weekly rest period is compensated by an equivalent period of rest taken in one go before the end of the third week following the week in question. "Once" here means in full, in one piece - you must not split the compensation into several parts (answer A) or into two equal parts (answer B). The compensation is attached to another rest period lasting at least 9 hours. As a result, the driver really rests after a reduced weekly rest period, instead of collecting single free hours scattered over several days.
