Failed my Class 1 test today • Unsure how to proceed now? :/

As regards car to C+E, if every truck driver going forward takes this route, there will obviously be excess entitlement out on the roads. This is because of the volume of rigids being used commercially nationwide. Considering it takes nearly double the training time to achieve C+E as opposed to just C, it also seems that there will be excess cost and time spent training truck drivers to C+E level.

A C+E pass will also have a natural inclination to wish to drive to maximum entitlement. If every truck driver is qualified to C+E level, obviously there will be some that will be disappointed.

As the last acquired rights 7.5 tonne licence holders are now in their forties, the multitude driving this category will gradually have to be replaced, so it could end up candidates are getting C+E to end up driving a 7.5 tonne vehicle. More likely candidates with C+E will decide it is either maximum entitlement driving or nothing, so they may exit the industry with a fully fledged and unused C+E licence.
