I have only done the 7.5T assessment but once I have been there a bit and hopefully got friendly with a manager or two I will ask if I can do the Class 2 assessment.
If I have been there a while and shown I am an ok driver with the 7.5T’s and they know I have Class 2, from your experience would the assessment be necessary if it was to cover somebody’s shift or a last minute job?
