How it differs from the car test
The format is familiar, but the bank, the clips and what comes next are not.
| Feature | Car | LGV |
|---|---|---|
| Questions | 50 in 57 minutes | 100 in 115 minutes |
| Pass mark | 43 out of 50 | 85 out of 100 |
| Hazard perception | 14 clips, 44 of 75 | 19 clips, 67 of 100 |
| How it is booked | One test, one fee | Multiple choice and hazard perception booked separately |
| What comes next | Practical driving test | Module 2 case studies, then the practical |
What you get to practise
Every question in the LGV bank is sorted into the topics below. You pick a topic, or let us choose: the more you get wrong in one topic, the more of it you see next.
Why should you carry spare tachograph charts?
Dlaczego warto mieć przy sobie zapasowe wykresy tachografu?Real questions from the current DVSA licensed bank, shown with the translations included in every category.

Is this the same as the Driver CPC?
The multiple choice and hazard perception you sit here are Module 1. The Driver CPC also has Module 2 case studies and Module 4 practical demonstration, which are separate tests.
Do I need a car licence first?
Yes. You need a full car licence and provisional LGV entitlement on your licence before you can book.
Why are there two pass rates for LGV theory?
Because it is two separate tests, booked and paid for separately: multiple choice, and hazard perception. Most people find the multiple choice the harder of the two, which is the opposite of what they expect.
How long does my theory pass last?
Two years, the same as every other category.
