CUSTOMER INFORMATION

You must have a full licence to drive a car - Group B.

The next stage is to complete the forms required to apply for your provisional driving licence - D2 & D4 (available from LTS). D2 is about you and the provisional you want and D4 is a medical form that must be completed by a Doctor. Any Doctor can carry out the medical and this usually costs between £55 - £120. See Fit 2 Drive Medicals

When completed, forms D2 & D4 must be sent to DVLA, Swansea together with your ordinary driving licence.

If all is well you should receive your new licence from the DVLA within about three weeks. Make sure you have been granted the provisional entitlement/s you applied for.
