Re: Claim's Cabbies Corner. HACK LIVES MATTER
The UK government introduced new motorcycle licence laws which came into effect in January from 2013. That's probably why as I have some 2013 crap on my licence as well.LynehamHerc wrote: ↑Sun Jul 03, 2022 8:33 amYou expected to be a pizza delivery rider sometime in the future?Warren t claim wrote: ↑Sat Jul 02, 2022 10:25 pmIt doesn't explain me taking a moped test in 2013 though?

Re: Claim's Cabbies Corner. HACK LIVES MATTER
The licence categories make no sense anyway. My HGV agency once tried to send me on a job driving a JCB Fastrac and trailer combo. When I told them that I can't drive one of those they informed me that they'd checked my licence and I could! I'm sure I was also licenced to drive a steam roller too but that doesn't mean to say that I'd know where to start!

Unless you took a test for category "g", why would you be?Warren t claim wrote: ↑Sun Jul 03, 2022 11:55 pm I'm sure I was also licenced to drive a steam roller too but that doesn't mean to say that I'd know where to start!
The last time I had a UK licence, I still had to do tests for categories "g" road roller and "h" tracked vehicles to have a full house.
Those two are national categories and are covered by "w" here, which is the all-encompassing "works vehicle"
(Upper case) categories A to E are the same across EEA. (Lower case) categories f onwards are individual country codes which may be completely different.

No, but I did manage to blag my Class 2 when the examiner was going to fail me.Eddie Honda wrote: ↑Mon Jul 04, 2022 12:57 am So was it a Two Lane Blacktop race against Fred Dibnah?

Re: Claim's Cabbies Corner. HACK LIVES MATTER
My examiner wasn't happy about how close I (very slowly) passed a bin wagon with men loading it. She, yes I had a lady examiner, said she wasn't happy about the thought of me driving a rigid commercially so I told her that I only want my Class 2 so I can take my terminally ill father out in his preserved ERF for one last time before eventually using his ERF to carry his coffin.Warren t claim wrote: ↑Mon Jul 04, 2022 1:04 amNo, but I did manage to blag my Class 2 when the examiner was going to fail me.Eddie Honda wrote: ↑Mon Jul 04, 2022 12:57 am So was it a Two Lane Blacktop race against Fred Dibnah?
