Category C1 Training
(inc. Horsebox and Ambulance)
|
Category C1 LGV / HGV training runs around Ipswich, Suffolk and uses the DSA Test Centre in Ipswich. C1 is the category that allows you to drive a vehicle over 3,500kg up to a maximum of 7,500kg. This is the category that permits you to drive ambulances and most horseboxes. It was automatically obtained if you passed your car test prior to 1/1/97. If you have passed your car test from that date you will have go through the process of obtaining a LGV licence, taking your practical test in our C1 training vehicle. Training for C1 has no set course. We prefer to give you a 4 hour assessment lesson and advise you on how many additional hours are required to come to test standard – most people requiring only a further 6 or 8 hours. All C1 training is charged at £40/hr, DSA Test Fee is £115 (£141 out of hours). |
