What Is the Category C 3a Test?
To gain your Cat C licence—which allows you to drive rigid lorries over 3.5 tonnes—you first need to complete the 3a off-road manoeuvres test. This test checks your ability to safely reverse and control a large vehicle in tight spaces.
During the test, candidates like Anooshirvan must demonstrate:
✅ Accurate reversing into a designated bay
✅ Smooth use of controls – steering, braking, and clutch
✅ Effective use of mirrors and observation
✅ Awareness of the vehicle’s size and space
Anooshirvan passed with ease, showing great control throughout the assessment—an excellent foundation for the next step: the Cat C 3b on-road driving test.
