Become an LGV driving instructor

You must have had a large goods vehicle (LGV) driving licence for at least 3 years to supervise a learner driver.

You do not need to take formal training or to be registered to teach someone to drive an LGV.

Register as an instructor voluntarily

You can apply to join either the:

• national register of LGV instructors - it’s endorsed by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA)
• national vocational driving instructors register

These registers have replaced the DVSA voluntary register of LGV instructors.
