LORRIES

Please note the minimum age for L.G.V./ P.C.V. has been lowered to 18 years of age.

All driving courses are for 20hrs to include Driving Standards Agency Test

Before you can take the wheel of an L.G.V. on the road you
must be in possession of an appropriate “provisional” L.G.V. licence.
(If you already hold a class C (rigid) licence then this acts
as a provisional licence for class C + E training purposes).

To obtain a provisional class C licence you must apply to the D.V.L.A. by:
1.Completing the enclosed form D2. ( Request an Information Pack )
2.Enclosing a prescribed “Medical” examination certificate (D4),
provided by your GP (we can arrange for such an examination by a GP should you prefer).
This medical has to be paid for and typically costs in the region of £30.00 with an associated GP
3.The provisional licence application is now free. This has to be posted to the D.V.L.C. with the above.

Hazzard Perseption & Theory Test
A written theory & hazzard perseption test must be passed by the trainee prior to being accepted
for the L.G.V. driving test. A workbook is required and a test fee incurred by the test centre.
We can book your test and the work book is available by post at see TSO


L.G.V. Driver training:
On satisfactory completion of the assessment, the training programme
typically runs for five to ten consecutive working days immediately prior to test
by a D.S.A. L.G.V. test centre.
Our courses are normally in the form of four
hours per day “behind the wheel” on road training with an
L.G.V. professional trainer. As the trainee/trainer ratio is usually 2 to 1,
each candidate can receive 8 hours “in cab” instruction per day.
Alternatively you can choose a one to one training course.
