Drivers' working hours

Okay kiddo, have you ever gone on a long car ride and felt tired and sleepy when you got to your destination? Well, imagine driving that car for hours and hours every single day, delivering goods or taking people from one place to another. That's what some grown-ups called drivers do for work.

But, just like you need rest and sleep to feel good and stay healthy, drivers also need rest and sleep to be safe and do their job well. That's why there are rules that say how long they can drive and how long they need to rest.

These rules are like a game with a timer. When the timer runs out, the driver needs to stop the game and rest. In this case, the timer is the number of hours they can drive before they need to take a break.

For example, if a driver can drive for 4 hours before needing a break, their timer is set to 4 hours. Once the 4 hours are up, they need to park their car in a safe place and rest for a while.

This is important to make sure they don't get too tired and sleepy while driving, because that can cause accidents and hurt people. And we don't want that, do we?

So remember, drivers have rules that say how long they can drive and rest, like a timer in a game. This helps them stay safe and do their job well.
