How long must a bus driver take a break for after driving continuously for the maximum period under the EU drivers’ hours rules?

Explanation: After a driving for a period of no more than 4.5 hours, you must take a break of at least 45 minutes, which mustn't be interrupted. If you're carrying passengers, they'll probably also be grateful for a break. Taking breaks at the correct time will keep you and your passengers safe and comfortable.
