Many drivers begin with a Class 2 licence, then move on to Class 1 to access better job roles and higher salaries.

Qualified Class 1 drivers can earn up to £50,000 per year, and even more with additional qualifications or specialist work, including:

How Long Does It Take to Get Your Class 1 Licence?
