Cat C (4 Lessons + Test Day)

In order to progress, you must first pass a category C theory and practical test before progressing onto category C+E (artic or drawbar trailer).

Before you can take a theory and practical driving test you must apply for a provisional C entitlement on you licence.  You will need forms D2 and D4. The provisional entitlement is free but the Medical Examination Report you need to accompany the licence application is not. Fees vary from doctor to doctor. We use a local surgery who charges £75 as you do not need to use your own GP.

Once you have your licence returned from DVLA, you can apply for the theory test. We provide study material which can be loaned with a refundable deposit on return. Theory tests can be booked online at www.dsa.gov.uk and follow the link to theory test.

You may book a driving assessment while you are waiting for a Theory test appointment, this can be booked over a two hour period and will give you a good understanding of how much training you require.

When you have passed the theory test you can then book your HGV driver training course. Training is conducted on a 1:1 basis so you have a qualified instructor guiding you through your lessons up to the test standard. Lessons are conducted in 4 hour sessions. Lessons normally run between 8am and 4pm Monday to Friday but can be booked on evenings and weekends on request. The driving tests are conducted locally in Beverley and the price for the test is £115 which we can incorporate into your quotation.

We have a range of Volvo Category C vehicles to provide training. They all come with ABS, tachographs, high-low gearboxes and box bodies that comply with all current legislation. This gives pupils experience in driving full size vehicles and helps them when trying to gain employment. We have our own private HGV training area to practice off road manoeuvres located nearby.
