Why would any new driver want to be an HGV driver? There’s no incentive, starting from scratch they’ve got to do 7.5t, class 3 then class 1, then the dcpc then get a digi card, maybe an ADR or hIAB licence, all that expense of a few thousand pounds to earn almost minimum wage, why bother? Go drive a van or forklift for the same money…No need to do 7.5 ton first
yes there is if you passed your car test in the last 15 years
and if you have only passed your car test in the last year or 2
you have to pass another test to drive vehicles between 3.5 ton and 7.5 ton
and only then will you need to pay for training and take another test to drive 7 and a half ton vehicles
and after that test you can train for your class 2 /cat c test
and if you pass that test you can pay more training money for your class 1/c plus e test
all in all it will cost you about 5 grand presuming you pass each test first time which is extremely highly unlikely
No, you can go straight from your B to C. No need to do C1. This will also give you lower categories on your licence too (I.e. C1)
