Tachograph and EU driver-hours compliance, in real time
Driving-time rules are complex and differ across every country a truck crosses. TruckThrust reads driving, break and rest patterns as they happen and turns EU 561/2006, AETR and national variations into a single readable signal — so drivers and dispatchers see a problem before it becomes an infringement, and have audit-ready logs after every trip.
Who it's for
- Professional drivers who need to stay inside their hours without doing the maths
- Dispatchers planning shifts around legal driving time
- Compliance officers preparing for roadside and company checks
- Fleet managers who want fewer infringements and less paperwork
Problems it solves
- Driving-time limits differ by country and are easy to breach unknowingly
- Infringements carry fines, points and reputational cost
- Paper logs and manual checks are slow and error-prone
- Roadside inspections require records to be produced quickly
What it does
- Driving, break and rest tracking to the minute
- Country-specific rule deltas applied automatically as you cross borders
- Proactive alerts before a limit would be breached
- One-tap PDF export of clean, timestamped logs for inspections
- Fleet-level compliance overview for operators and dispatch
How it works
Capture
Driving and duty status are logged automatically — no manual entry required.
Interpret
The rules engine applies EU 561/2006, AETR and the national rules for wherever the truck currently is.
Warn
The driver gets a nudge before a break or rest limit is reached, with time and options.
Export
Audit-ready logs are ready to show at a roadside or company check in one tap.
Why it matters
- Fewer infringements and a lower fine exposure
- Less admin — logs are generated automatically
- Roadside-ready records in seconds
- A single source of truth for driver, dispatcher and operator
Important: TruckThrust provides operational decision support. It does not guarantee legal compliance — responsibility for meeting driving-time and tachograph rules remains with the driver and operator.
The rules referenced include Regulation (EC) No 561/2006 on driving times, breaks and rest periods, the AETR agreement for cross-border journeys, and national implementations. Always consult the official texts and, where needed, qualified advice.
Frequently asked questions
Which rules does TruckThrust cover?
It works from EU Regulation 561/2006, the AETR agreement for cross-border journeys, and national variations, applying the rules relevant to where the vehicle currently is.
Does it replace a tachograph?
No. The tachograph remains the legal recording device. TruckThrust helps drivers and dispatchers understand and stay ahead of the limits, and keeps readable logs alongside it.
Does TruckThrust guarantee compliance?
No. It is decision support that makes the rules visible and gives early warnings; the legal responsibility for compliance stays with the driver and operator.
