Passed Class 2 1st time - thank you Gordon Springate

NEW AND WANNABE DRIVERS (INTERACTIVE)
1

Since starting on this path from October last year I finally passed my Class 2 first time on Friday just passed with 3 minors.

A huge thanks to Gordon Springate Training at Detling and also in particular to Gina for the 16 hours instruction.

I found the test itself to be much easier to drive than I had expected based on the training routes around Chatham/Gillingham/Rochester etc. that I had been driving during the week preceding the test. This held me in good stead I think as I knew what the worst could be.

The DVSA assessor I had at the Gillingham test centre was a decent chap and even had time during the test to have a natter!

CPC to be ironed out (had planned for just going full on 35 hrs but don’t have the holiday time for that plus 5 days Class 1 :unamused: - so having to go back to Mod 2 and Mod 4 route which I didn’t want to do - and then I will be back to start Class 1 training in a few months.

Thanks for the heads up Dave and will check them out. I am in Tonbridge as it happens but am planning to be looking up that neck of the woods as not far to drive if anything is available. As I currently have a job, it will be only for alternate Saturdays for the near future until the wheels of life kick in and I can go permanent trucking :smiley:
