| To learn to drive an articulated vehicle or
drawbar combination (C+E) |
|
When you have passed your C+E
test you can drive any LGV vehicle.
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
| You must be over 21
and have passed your Category
C driving test (if you obtained a Provisdional
LGV licence before 1st Jan 1997 then you will have a
provisional licence to drive an artic (C+E) but you will still
need to take your Category C test first. You must check your
licence to see if the provisional for C+E is on it |
| You must hold the
full Category
C licence the pass
certificate is NOT acceptable. On passing your category C driving
test you must send your provisional licence back to the DVLA for them to
upgrade it to a full Category
C and at the same time they will put the
provisional on it for the artic (C+E) automatically. DVLA normally
take about 10 working days to process your licence.
There is no time limit between passing your Category C test and
taking a C+E test (other than the time it takes to process your new Cat
C licence)
|
| You do not need to
take a second Theory
test if you
had to take one in order to pass your Category
C driving test. If you passed your
Category
C or old HGV
2/3 before the theory test was introduced then you are one of the lucky
ones and you don't have to pass a theory test before doing your
C+E training |
