TO WIN

LET COMMERCIAL MOTOR PAY FOR YOUR HGV CLASS 1 TRAINING

• Last year more than 50,000 hopefuls endured an hour of acute nervous strain during the course of their heavy goods vehicles driving tests.

Not every one of them actually passed out: for some, those few words from the examiner, "I'm pleased to tell you that. . ." were the beginning of a new career in road transport. The ultimate test of driving skill most surely be the Heavy Goods Vehicle Class One Licence. Handing a rigid is one thing, but the men who earn a living driving an articulated truck up and down Britain's highways have to be the best in the business.

Learning to drive an artic, however, can be a costly business. Some lucky drivers work for companies which are prepared to foot the bill. But for the majority, it's a case of saving hard. And with the average HGV Class One course costing over £800 for 10 days' tuition, it can be a heavy burden to bear.

Now Commercial Motor is prepared to take up that burden by footing the bill — at least for one lucky would-be driver. Below are six questions covering a number of topics in the Highway Code. Answer all six correctly, tell us the most important skill for an HGV 1 driver, and you could be taking the first step in an HGV driving career.
