Explanation: • 2 hours: No, finishing at 21.00 and re-starting at 05.00 hrs gives an 8 hour rest period. This is one hour short of a 'reduced daily rest' period and 3 hours short of a normal 'daily rest' period.
• 3 hours: No, this does meet the requirement of a daily rest period of 11 hours, however, the question asks 'How many hours is Joseph short of a 'reduced daily' period.
• 4 hours: No, this is too long.
• 1 hour: Yes, this meets the requirement of a 'reduced daily rest' and is the most efficient use of a driver's working time in this example.
