My OH has a lot of reading to do this weekend

Hi Andy

I wonder if you can answer something thats bugging me a bit.

OH has his UK Class 1 (Artic), he has a TWP so will start work, do training and take his test for Class 1 in NS.

I have a Class 2, Rigid license in the Uk, I can't work for 6 months or until PNP is approved, but I have to exchange my license within 90 days. If I'm reading all the info, we have correctly, if I want to keep my HGV license I need to also pass my test for Hgvs' within this time frame?

Eventually, sooner rather than later, I want to get my Class 1, so if I have to pass a test to keep my Class 2 or NS equivalent, paying for this myself, would it be more prudent to go straight for my Class 1. and Am I allowed to do this without having to jump through a million and 1 Hoops?

Your'e welcome Ros, the airbrake manual looks daunting but the test is easy, 20 multiple choice questions and you have to get 16/20, it really is easy if you read the manual, not so much study it, just read it.

andy_sheila

The short answer is take your class 1 when you get here, your class 2 is equivilent to a class 3 here and as far as i know you wouldn't be able to just exchange it.
Is Rod being trained by a company? Are you? I will pm you my email address as i could save you a lot of money.

Gremmie

To the best of my knowledge,YOU can do your Class1 + airbrake, no hoops,just apply same as hubby

Hi

Am I reading this correct but, OH has HGV 1, so if we move to NS, does he have to take another driving test??????
HELP !!!!

koogar

He'll have to take another class one test, yes.
As far as I know, you have to do that in any province.
I presume his car licence is just an exchange.

Twink001

Hi,
Yep car licence would be an exchange.
Just finding one prob after another at mo !!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanx

andy_sheila

I admit i haven't checked lately but unless they have changed the rules in the last 2 years, you will have to take your car test as well.

How much does the HGV test cost??
