Hong Kong LGV Theory Test case studies
Hong Kong LGV Theory Test · Put your knowledge to work in context.
The Hong Kong Light Goods Vehicle (LGV) theory test is the written stage of the licensing process for drivers who want to drive a light goods vehicle - a goods-carrying vehicle within the light category permitted under a Hong Kong driving licence. Candidates usually take it after holding a private car licence, since the LGV class builds on ordinary road experience, and before the practical driving test.
