How did you manage to jump through all the necessary hoops and get all the way to passing your C+E practical test without realising that?

A slightly suspicious well done and congratulations from me! :smiley:

Class 3 used to be a 2 axled Rigid. 3 or more was Class 2 and Class 1 was Artics.

Oddly enough you used to be able to hook an A-Frame up to a Class 3 without taking any extra tests. This is what happens when idiots are in charge.

Well done on your passing your test. I wanted to do mine recently but had a TIA (Mini stroke) about 8 weeks ago and the DVLA took away my Class C category from my licence I gained in 2011. I now have to wait to re-apply for my licence for LGV’s next Feb :cry: .

It does! Waited so long for it now! Really happy iv got it! Start at Ak’s on the 8th so hopefully ill get to drive C+E (NOT class one! :smiley: :smiley: ) within the next couple of months. I could go and find another agency but in honesty im sick of working on agency and cant turn down a full time job driving C2 with the prospect of going to C1!

Well done Kev,

Well done for getting it and getting a full time job as well, you must be well chuffed! Hope it all falls into place for you and the family bud! If I had any celebratory smilies etc I would’ve ended with one!
