Just to say HOW DO

NEW AND WANNABE DRIVERS (INTERACTIVE)

Hi guys and gals, just found the site and thought id join. I’ve had my class c since October 2008 but never really done much with it. It helped me to drive the 5.5 tonne sprinters on tacho cards but now I have just relocated 25miles from the depot and want to go out and get some class c work. I‘m also considering getting my C + E but the problem I seam to be having is my age (24) and no experience on class c even though ive been driving vans commercially for 3 years but they don’t seam to want to even consider me. so now im just thinking if I go and get my C + E licence am I just wasting my money and time? I know im just moaning but before I spend a grand would like some opinions off current drivers. If any of you live around Bolton and know of any one who takes on young drivers OVER HERE :laughing:

cheers Ryan

Many newbies on this site under the age of 25 have found that getting their C+E has given them more options - some now have permanent CE jobs :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Opens a lot more doors mate… Got to be worth it. Even if you’re sat on it till you’re 25.
