Preparing For Tests

Hi,

Is it a must to read through the 300 page book from DVLA how to drive a LGV, the highway code, traffic signs? Or just do as many practise tests as possible will prepare you enough? As some stuff in the books are for other vehicles and technical details about vehicles.

The hazard test is virtually the same as the car one. It’s the theory test.

Thanks.

I’m sure this will get moved to the newbies section shortly, but read that book!

They’ve jammed it with a hell of a lot of sensible info on how to drive a lorry.

Yep been moved. :wink:

Assimilate (like the Borg) as much knowledge on the subject as you can in a way that suits you best
Unfortunately being assimilated into the collective is not going to be an option :wink: :laughing:

Also get the cd/dvd, its interactive with questions answers of test

Finding the DVSA theory test for lgv/pcv and DVSA guide to driving goods vehicles very informative and useful.

Didn’t bother with the road signs book, easy enough to Google those and the last chapter in the theory book covers them to. The cpc book is crap. And the app I’m using to practice has the highway code built in though I’ve not really felt a need to reference the highway code.
