How to tell if you need a towing licence

[Justme]

The test costs £500

 

No the test costs £115

 

The training costs more.

[Justme]

Was quoted £350 - £500 a year or so back from memory

 

 

Dep on the amount of training thats cheap.

I bet your customers feel the same about a few little cuts to get a tree down lol.

 

Like most things its knowing where & when to make those cuts.

 

Did you feel the same about getting your car licence or your saw tickets?

 

 

No because I was taught how to cut a tree down in my cs training, I feel very much that my 65 year old mother who can't park a hatchback in Tesco probably wouldn't have been as myself safe dragging my chipper across the country last Sunday even though she would be legal, I know I need to get it done but I do begrudge it somewhat.

[skyhuck]

£115 ain't the end of the world.

 

I'd happily pay it to be young enough to need it.

Which is why the law was changed to stop exactly that situation of people being legal but no training to do it.

 

 

If you think BE is costly dont expand & need C1 C1E C or CE you will **** your pants.

 

Its the same test just in bigger vehicles.

Lol Its the training that bulks the cost up.

 

Just turning up you would almost certainly fail.

Would have been nicer if they changed it in 2000 though 😜

[Justme]

This law change has now been active for over 20 years.

 

Some of you wont even have been born when it started.

I had one customer that took their test on the first day of the new system.

[Justme]

Roughly half of all my customers are towing illegally already.

 

ALL of them would have failed the test without taking training.

 

So far I have not had a single customer ready for the test when they came to me.
