Drivers over the age of 18 that wish to train to drive a Large Goods Vehicle (LGV) up to 7.5tonnes must first attend a medical examination with a Doctor and pass a theory test.  On passing the theory test we will be happy to organise a driving assessment on your behalf.                                   

To achieve a high standard of driving sufficient to pass the Driving Standards Agency (DSA) driving test you will develop your existing driving skills in the following areas.

Vehicle Control
You will learn how to drive the vehicle, operating its controls smoothly and concisely, handling each situation that arises safely and under vehicular control. You will need to understand the vehicles capabilities, handling characteristics and limitations.

All Round Awareness 
As a professional LGV Driver you will learn the importance of knowing what is happening all around you at any time. You will be conscious of any potential hazards that may develop and deal with them accordingly at the correct time.

Forward Planning
Large Goods Vehicles need more time to brake, accelerate and to manoeuvre. You will plan ahead and slow down, indicate and act much earlier than usual when approaching junctions or hazards.

Your Driving Instructor will teach you the necessary skills required to drive to a much higher standard than you first thought possible. Our highly experienced DSA Registered Driving Instructors are trained to identify, analyse and remedy any shortcomings in your driving abilities, whilst putting you at your ease and building your self-confidence. We pride ourselves with a much higher first time pass rate than our competitors.
