What time will Martin have to stop driving for a required break under EU 561/2006 assuming he started work at 6:45 am?

Explanation: • 11:00 No, this gives a driving time of 4 hours (as he did not start driving until 7 am) meaning that he does not necessarily have to stop driving at that time.
• 11:15 No, this gives a DRIVING time of4 hours and 15 minutes (as he did not start DRIVING until 7 am) meaning that he does not necessarily have to stop driving at that time.
• 12:45 No, this would give Martin a 6 hour duty which may be correct if the question was asking about Working Time Directive, however, the question is about EU drivers' hours
• 11:30 Yes, as this would mean that Martin has completed 4 and a half hours of Driving and therefore requires a 45 minute break.
