Apply for Provisional Entitlement
Send your D4 form completed by a doctor, your D2 form completed by yourself and both parts of your existing licence to the DVLA, Swansea, SA99 1BR,
Begin Studying
Whilst you are waiting for your licence to return, begin studying for your LGV theory test & hazard perception test. There are various study materials available to help you, such as, LGV Theory Test Book or CD Rom and also Hazard Perception DVD. Unfortunately these won't sit the test for you. You need to put in the study time to pass.
Book your Theory Test
Once your licence has been returned with your provisional entitlement on it, you can then book your LGV Theory Test and Hazard Perception Test. These are now booked seperately. Try to book them for the same day, to save you making two trips. The system won't let you book them too close together, so try with a 3 hour gap between the two. Don't worry, they usually let you straight in for the next one without you having to wait ages. Don't forget to book the LGV CPC if you require it.
Book your LGV Driving Course
When you have passed your LGV theory test you are ready to contact AJM Training and book your LGV Category C C+E or C1 Driving Course.
