LGV (HGV) Training from RIC Training

Please note that you must be over 21 to be able to drive an LGV

Medicals

You can use your own doctor for this or you can use one that we use. Our doctor will charge £40 but charges do vary from doctor to doctor so it may be worth checking with your own. You will need a D4 form that you can either get from us or from DSA. Once you have your form you can see the doctor.

Provisional entitlement onto driving licence

Once you have passed your medical you will need to complete a D2 application form for LGV provisional entitlement. The D2 is then sent off with the D4 and your licence to the DVLA which is then returned with the provisional entitlement on it.
