whats the difference between LGV and HGV.. light goods is how heavy compared to Heavy goods (articulated?)
Seems all the categorys changed around a while back...
The LGV Category C Licence (which i'm doing) replaces the old HGV Category 3 and 2 Licences. The HGV 3 Licence allowed the holder to drive any ridged HGV vehicle with no more than two axles. The HGV 2 Licence allowed the holder to drive any rigid HGV vehicle with more than two axles, for example a tipper with four axles.
The holder of the new LGV Category C Licence is qualified to drive any LGV rigid (non articulated) vehicle no matter what the size, weight, or number of axles.
Artictulated...
The LGV Category C+E Licence replaces the old HGV Class One Licence. The holder of the new LGV Category C+E Licence is qualified to drive any Articulated Vehicle or any Rigid Vehicle while pulling a trailer, regardless of weight or axle numbers.
