Driving a large vehicle such as buses or cargo vehicles is very risky and calls for qualified and trained drivers. Given the fact that many road accidents occur because of reckless driving, the European Union has decided to employ only those drivers who have a valid driving license and are professionally trained. However, if someone is between 15 ½ and 18 years of age and still wants to drive commercial vehicles, he can get a provisional license after completing a few formalities.
With the help of a provisional license, you take the first step towards driving large goods vehicles and passenger carrying vehicles. You just need to fill in the application form D2 and a medical form D4.
The Medical Form
An important step in obtaining the provisional license is filling up the medical form D4. The form needs to be filled by a doctor only, and you must take care that all the relevant questions in the form are rightly answered by the doctor. To get this work done, you would normally have to pay a small fee to the doctor, although there is no fee for buying the application form.
Along with the form, you must necessarily return the original documents confirming your identity, a passport size color photograph and your current valid paper or photo- card driving license. The filled form and the stated documents can be sent to DVLA, Swansea, SA99 1BR or you can use the premium checking service.
