Recital 6
Recital 6
(6) Drivers engaged in long-distance international transport operations spend long periods away from their home. The current requirements on the regular weekly rest unnecessarily prolong those periods. It is thus desirable to adapt the provision on the regular weekly rest in such a way that it is easier for drivers to carry out transport operations in compliance with the rules and to reach their home for a regular weekly rest, and be fully compensated for all reduced weekly rest periods. It is also necessary to provide that operators organise the work of drivers in such a way that these periods away from homtheir place of residence are not excessively long. Drivers should also be able to choose how they take their rest.

Recital 7
(7) There are differences among Member States in the interpretation and implementation of the weekly rest requirements as regards the place where the weekly rest should be taken. It is therefore appropriate to clarify that requirement to ensure that drivers are provided with adequate accommodation for their regular weekly rest periods if they are taken away from home. If this condition is to be fulfilled, the Member States must put sufficient investment into the construction of safe parking areas that are adapted to the needs of drivers.
