This ruling addresses two technical issues, which have implications for working time on the road. The first concerns the interpretation of the term « operations centre », in paragraphs 21 following the judgement of the Court of Justice of 18 January 2001 (Case C-297/99, Skills Motor Coaches and Others: Rec. ECJ 2001, I, p. 573). The second calls for an explanation of Regulation (EC) No 3820/85, 20 December 1985, later repealed by Regulation (EC) No 561/2006 on the harmonisation of specific social legislation in road transport concerning a driver who goes to collect a vehicle fitted with a control device himself or whether, instead, it is driven by someone else, as this has a bearing on the classification of travel time under the concept of « rest » within the meaning of Article 1, paragraph 5.
