Dar es Salaam. Commercial drivers will soon face stricter limits on how long they can stay behind the wheel under new regulations aimed at reducing fatigue-related road accidents and improving public safety.
The draft Land Transport Regulatory Authority (Fatigue Risk Management for Drivers) Regulations, 2025, introduce clear caps on daily and weekly driving hours, alongside mandatory rest periods, as part of a broader effort to manage fatigue risks in public and commercial transport.
