In order to drive a minibus professionally you must also pass the driver CPC case study test. The bus case study test and the combined truck and bus case study test ask you to look at three real-life situations a professional driver might face.
Each case study test is computer-based and user-friendly, and works as follows:
You can prepare for the case study test by reading and learning the Rules of the Road. There are also a wide range of official printed, digital and online learning materials available. You can also prepare for the case study test with an approved Driver CPC trainer.
You can book online and then take your case study test at any of the 40+ theory test centres nationwide.
When you pass the case study test you are issued with a driver CPC case study test certificate. This is valid for up to two years. You should apply for a learner permit within that time. After two years the certificate will no longer be valid and you will have to pay for and sit the case study test again.
If you want to become category D1 (CPC minibus) driver you must pass a case study test.
You must have passed the driver CPC theory test before you can sit your case study test
