LGV / HGV / PCV Taster Session

Thinking about a career move but not sure where to start? Or have you always wanted to experience what’s it’s like behind the wheel of a bigger vehicle?

The perfect way to see if the life of a driver is for you by trying your hand at driving the vehicles before you commit to anything else! These can take place either with or without your provisional entitlement. Let us know what you’re trying to achieve, and we’ll do our best to give you the best introductions to help you make the decision that’s right for you. Why not book one of our taster sessions and give it a go!

On-road experience

Take the wheel and drive an HGV or PCV on the public roads with one of our instructors!

This option requires your licence has the provisional entitlements for the vehicle you wish to drive.
If you do not already have the correct provisional entitlements on your driving licence, we will arrange a medical assessment for you and help you upgrade your licence prior to your Taster Session.

In-yard experience

Climb into a real cab unit and learn the ropes of the transport industry.

This experience does not require a provisional entitlement on your licence, and does not include a medical.
This experience does not include any driving on the public highway except where the instructor is in control of the vehicle. At locations with sufficient yard space, you may be able to drive the vehicle in a private, enclosed setting.

Please check these options thoroughly BEFORE selecting your experience.
