Petition To allow psv Licence holders to upgrade free to a class 2 lorry licence.
As a psv driver, you are driving vehicles that are longer than a class 2 lorry. And busses can weigh a lot more than a lorry as well. With a bus you are carrying precious cargo (passengers) so why can you not allow a psv licence holder to be allowed an automatic right to a class 2 licence.
More details
There is a huge shortage of hgv drivers within the UK. So surely by allowing a psv licence holder the right to a class 2 lorry licence, without the need of a further driving exam would make a lot of sense.
