Hi all,
iv been looking over this forum for a few months now eagerly awaiting my chance to get behind the drivers seat and start trucking.
I was 18 yesterday so went out with my “L” plates on and enjoyed every second of it
then today I have passed my HGV multiple choice with 87 out of 100 (pass mark is 85), and passed my HGV hazard perception test with 75 out of 100 (pass mark is 67) which I am pleased about.
Tomorrow I have my writing part of the Initial CPC and also waiting on booking my training and test ASAP.
hope to see you all out on the road soon !!
(mind you dont drive behind me as ill be driving an Animal By-products Lorry ;D)

He’ll be referring to the Mod 2 which is the case studies test for the initial driver cpc. It’s not literally written; it’s all on computer.
But drivers with grandfather rights escape this and simply need to complete 35 hours of periodic training (no test or exams) before Sept 2014. Typically, these are the drivers who passed a car test before 1997 and, as a consequence, hold a C1.
So I passed my car test in 1990 got C1E on my licence so do I need to go for theory test and hp or not? got it booked on the 08/02/2013 at Boston Lincs

There are 4 modules with number 1 split in two
You only need modules 1 and 3
1a - theory
1b - HPT
2 - dcpc theory
3 - practical road drive/reverse etc
4 - dcpc practical
