Change your Digital Tachograph to British Summer Time
The UK’s clocks will go forward one hour on Sunday 30th March 2025 at 01:00 Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), as we transition to British Summer Time (BST).
Many drivers prefer to have the time displayed on their tachograph set to local time all through the year, avoiding a one-hour difference between tachograph time and BST during the summer months. If you share this preference, you will need to reset local time on your tachograph twice a year; once in the spring, when the clocks go forward to BST; and again, in the autumn, when the UK reverts to GMT.
Our presentations show you how to set your tachograph to local time. Please ensure that you click on your make of digital tachograph, watch the presentation, and follow the instructions carefully.
