LGV Category C+E
Course Requirements
You are now able to undertake training in a Category C+E vehicle without the need to pass your Category C Rigid test first, the LGV driving test has also changed. We take road safety seriously and have the highest standard of LGV training we can deliver, our team of highly qualified and experienced instructors will not compromise on the elements that are not tested by the Government examiner so we will continue to deliver a full course which will take into account plenty of reversing to ensure you are confident and competent when leaving our training centre.
Prior to starting the course you need to apply for your provisional licence, which is free of charge. To enable you to do this you have to have a medical either with your own doctor or our doctor at a cost of £150.00.
You will need to send off a medical form (D4) with your application form (D2) to the DVLA, which normally takes up to about 10 days to process. Only when you receive your licence back from the DVLA with the provisional entitlement on can you proceed onto the next step. You will need to study and sit a theory and hazard perception test. If you would like to study for these tests using our online training, we can arrange for you to have access at a cost of £30. Once you have passed your theory tests you are then able to continue with the practical training course.
