Ready to obtain your LGV, HGV, or PCV licence? We simplify the process for you! Just provide your licence details and a small deposit, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Note: The terms “LGV, HGV, and PCV” are now updated to:
- LGV – Large Goods Vehicle
- HGV – Heavy Goods Vehicle
- PCV – Passenger Carrying Vehicle
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Obtain Your Provisional Licence
To apply, you’ll need:
- D4 (Medical Form)
- D2 (Licence Application Form)
These are available when you join a course with Atkins LGV Training. Provisional licences are free of charge.
2. Medical Examination
You can arrange your own medical with your GP, or we can help. The GP completes the D4 Medical Form, which you submit with your D2 Application Form and driving licence.
3. Theory & Hazard Perception Test
Once you have your provisional licence, it’s time for your Theory Test and Hazard Perception Test. We’ll book the tests for you and provide study materials to help you pass.
4. Reversing Test
As soon as the theory & hazard perception tests are passed, you must then pass the reversing test before your driving test. You’ll receive a pass certificate valid for six months, during which you’ll need to complete your on-road test.
5. Driving Test
With your Theory, Hazard Perception, and Reversing Tests complete, we’ll pre-book your driving test and arrange training. Our expert instructors will ensure you’re fully prepared.
6. CPC Training
For professional drivers:
- Before January 31, 1997: Complete Periodic CPC Training (5 x 7-hour days).
- After January 31, 1997: Complete the Initial CPC, which includes the Theory Test and CPC Module 4 Test.
We provide all necessary training and guidance to help you become a qualified driver.
