The Process..

After passing the theory test you have to first take the L.G.V Category C (H.G.V CLASS II) before taking the LGV C+E (H.G.V CLASS I). Once you have your Class II licence you can go straight on to Class I training.
Your LGV test will last about 90 minutes. During this time your examiner will want you to drive safely to a high standard under various road and traffic conditions. You'll be given directions clearly and in good time and asked to carry out set exercises. If you take your test on a manual vehicle, you'll be asked to carry out a gear- change exercise during the general drive element of the test. The set exercises carried out at the test centre will include reversing within a marked area into a restricted opening, a braking exercise and you need to demonstrate the uncoupling and recoupling procedure, if you're taking your test with a trailer.

It is important that you have the correct training and instruction before taking your LGV practical test.
The Driving Standards Agency (DSA) has developed a voluntary LGV Instructor Accreditation Scheme to ensure that training offered to prepare new LGV drivers to take the current DSA LGV theory test and practical driving test is of a high standard.
