I'm in the wrong business, going to set up Trailer Instruction School at these rates, very good luck guys at passing your tests though.

 

I went for a job interview driving for Sussex Council before I went back to tree work, turned out to be a full LGV Test CBT then out driving a 17ton Vulture dustcart. Luckily I never passed the CBT only got 86% think the instructor and I were both relieved!

 

Its been 44yrs since I took a driving test....

It must be the prices down South for this. I've spent ~£1100 on training and took 2 tests. Passed this week :biggrin: Again, wasn't my money but that's the cheapest I could find. All others started at £500+...£36 an hour wasn't bad... but if I'm told ONE MORE TIME to lift the handbrake before depressing the button I swear I'll shoot the instructor! Major anal...

Does anyone know what the fine is if you are found to be over the limit without holding this trailer certifcate?

 

Tis a bit more serious than that - it's driving a vehicle without the correct license. Don't know the penalties though.

Well done mate :thumbup:. It's only £20 an hour here haha and I know what you mean about the handbrake, nothing more annoying than being moaned at for that haha
