Pass the LGV and PCV Theory Test

Training to drive a lorry (LGV) or a bus or coach (PCV)? The theory part is a hurdle: around one candidate in two fails the LGV multiple-choice test. This book teaches the rules that matter for large vehicles, gives you a written method for hazard perception and for the Driver CPC case studies, and lets you practise until the pass mark feels routine.

The Driver CPC initial qualification has theory parts you must pass: 100 multiple-choice questions in 1 hour 55 minutes (pass mark 85 out of 100), 19 hazard perception clips (pass mark 67 out of 100), and the case studies test with 7 case studies and 50 questions in 1 hour 15 minutes (pass mark 40 out of 50).

What is inside:

- 16 short chapters you can read on a phone: licence categories and the Driver CPC, test day and a revision plan, fitness to drive, drivers' hours, tachographs, working time and penalties, weights and dimensions, brakes and vehicle control, the daily walkaround check, loading, carrying passengers, sharing the road, breakdowns and incidents, a written method for hazard perception, and the case studies test
- 4 appendices: key numbers at a glance, a full mock case studies test (7 case studies, 50 questions) with scoring, and a glossary with a test-day checklist
- 800 original practice questions, every one with the correct answer and a short explanation
- 4 full mock tests of 100 questions in the same layout as the real multiple-choice part

Every rule is tied to its source: GOV.UK, the Highway Code and legislation.gov.uk, read in October 2026. Where a point could not be confirmed, the book says so and tells you to check the current DVSA guidance. The book covers Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales), not Northern Ireland. It does not cover ADR (dangerous goods) or the practical tests beyond their format.

All questions are original. This is an independent study guide: it is not produced, endorsed or approved by DVSA, and it does not contain real test questions or hazard perception clips.
