answer text

The Government takes road safety very seriously and the UK has some of the safest roads in the world. It is important that drivers with Category C and C+E entitlement on their driving licences fully meet the requirements for those returning to HGV driving. This includes a driver medical and renewing their Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC). A joint DfT/industry letter will be sent to HGV licence holders this week to encourage those who have left the profession to return.
