At MT Training Services in Tewkesbury, we are thrilled to offer exceptional HGV (Heavy Goods Vehicle) driver training to help you achieve your professional driving goals. Our comprehensive courses are designed to prepare you thoroughly for the HGV driving tests, and we’re delighted to share the fantastic news about Jennifer from South Western Ambulance Services NHS Foundation Trust. Jennifer has passed her C1 3b test with an impressive result!

Understanding the HGV Driving Test

The HGV driving test is divided into two distinct parts to ensure that candidates are well-prepared for all aspects of driving a heavy vehicle:

3a Test: This component focuses on off-road exercises, such as vehicle coupling, reversing, and various manoeuvres. The advantage of this split is that you must pass the 3a test before you can book the 3b test. If you don’t pass the off-road portion, you won’t lose out on an expensive driving test fee, as you can retake the 3a test independently.

3b Test: Once you’ve passed the 3a test, you’re eligible to take the 3b test, which assesses your road driving skills. During this test, the examiner evaluates how you handle the vehicle controls, navigate angles and gradients, perform controlled stops, and use mirrors and signals. You will also need to demonstrate awareness of other road users, manage vehicle speed, deal with hazards effectively, and select safe stopping points.

Jennifer’s recent success in her C1 3b test exemplifies the effectiveness of our training programmes. Her achievement is a testament to her hard work and the thorough preparation provided by MT Training Services.
