Abstract: Abstract In this paper the new EC Regulation No 561/2006 and related regulations on drivers’ working hours as well as their influence on vehicle routing will be discussed. Therefore all rules of the regulation affecting vehicle routing are presented and classified according to the different but interconnected time horizons they refer to. Essential consequences of ignoring the regulations during the planning process are discussed and demonstrated using an example. Furthermore general aspects of modelling the restrictions are presented.
