What Is the Category CE 3b Test?

The CE 3b test is the on-road element of the Class 1 HGV licence. It’s designed to evaluate how well you handle an articulated lorry in real-world conditions, including a variety of road types and traffic situations.

Deborah passed with confidence, showing excellent:

✅ Mirror use and road awareness

✅ Vehicle positioning and control

✅ Observation and signalling

✅ Judgement at junctions and roundabouts

✅ Independent driving for 10 minutes

Her clean, professional driving is exactly what we aim to instil in all our learners—and she nailed it.

What Can You Do with a CE Licence?

Once fully qualified, Category CE drivers can operate articulated lorries used in:

✔ Long-haul logistics and trunking routes

✔ Freight and container transport

✔ Supermarket and retail deliveries

✔ Specialist haulage including construction and events

There’s a wide range of employers across Gloucestershire and the South West looking for new Class 1 drivers right now—and with a full CE licence, you’ll be ready to hit the road.
