Before you start a new seven-day cycle, it is compulsory that you have how many consecutive hours off duty?

The correct answer is: 36

In the transportation industry, it is important for drivers to have sufficient rest and time off duty to prevent fatigue and promote safety. The question is asking about the requirement for the minimum consecutive hours off duty before starting a new seven-day cycle. Option A, 24 hours, is not enough time for proper rest and recovery. Option C, 48 hours, may be a common standard practice for other industries, but it is not the required minimum in this specific context. Option D, 72 hours, is too long of a period off duty and may result in decreased productivity. Therefore, option B, 36 hours, is the correct answer as it strikes a balance between rest and productivity for transportation workers.
