HGV Category C licences, or Class 2 licences as they are also called, allow drivers to drive rigid body trucks over 3,5000kg. This includes the weight of an added trailer of up to 750kg.
Category C licences cover:
Most haulage trucks
Fire engines
Bin collection vehicles
Large removal trucks
The HGV Category C, Class 2, or Rigid training courses are the most popular route for new commercial vehicle drivers, as the Category C licence will automatically qualify you to drive any vehicles covered by the Category C1 licence also.
