The thesis examines the use of digital tachographs in road transport and outlines the obligations of both drivers and hauliers in this regard.
The introductory theoretical part presents the development of tachographs from analog to modern smart devices, which enables an understanding of technological progress and its impact on road traffic control. The thesis then focuses on the digital tachograph, presenting its appearance, operation, and legal regulation of use in more detail. The obligations and duties of drivers and hauliers are then discussed separately. The haulier must keep abreast of applicable legislation, new developments, and best practices. They must pass on the knowledge they have acquired to drivers, who must consistently follow instructions and use the digital tachograph correctly in their daily work. An important part of the thesis is devoted to the procedures for recording and storing data from digital tachographs, as hauliers must enable secure long-term storage of data in case of inspection by supervisory authorities.
The research part of the seminar paper includes an analysis of a real case of a road traffic violation committed by a driver due to the incorrect use of a digital tachograph.
The results of the analysis show that violations are most often the result of ignorance of the rules or inadequate supervision. At the same time, they confirm that the correct use of digital tachographs, appropriate training of drivers, and consistent monitoring of data are key to greater traffic safety and reducing the possibility of irregularities and manipulation.
The task thus emphasizes the importance of technological development and digitization in the transport sector, as modern solutions enable greater transparency of operations, more effective monitoring of drivers' working hours, and better fleet management.
