Noticed a new ‘Rest’ feature in your Zego Sense app? You’re not the only one.
We’ve added this to help you understand how your driving patterns affect your safety – and ultimately, your insurance.
In short, Rest looks at how often you take breaks during long hours behind the wheel. Because staying sharp means staying safe. The longer you go without proper rest, the harder it becomes to stay focused on the road.
Here are two helpful ways to improve your Rest score:
- Take a 45-minute break for every 4.5 hours of driving.
- Take at least 11 hours away from the wheel to recharge - no driving in between.
These recommendations are based on UK and EU guidelines relating to daily resting and driving hours.
Skipping breaks or pushing limits can lower your overall driver score, while steady habits keep it strong. Because safe drivers aren’t just good drivers – they’re well-rested, too!
