What Is the Cat C 3a Test?
The Cat C 3a test is the first part of the practical driving assessment for your Category C (rigid lorry) licence. It focuses on off-road manoeuvring, which includes reversing and precise vehicle control in a confined space.
To pass, candidates must demonstrate:
- ✅ Safe and accurate reversing
- ✅ Controlled use of steering, clutch, and brakes
- ✅ Proper positioning and awareness of vehicle dimensions
- ✅ Adherence to DVSA safety standards
Amber showed great control and focus during her 3a test—an excellent indicator that she’s ready to take on the next challenge: the on-road Cat C 3b test.
