I first got my old class 2 in 1971 - passed a class 1 a year or so later, then my PSV when I started working in the bus industry in 1986. They appear to still be valid untill I am 70 in 3 years time - but I can't drive for hire or reward. The only thing I drive now is a Sprinter mini-bus as a volunteer for a local pensioners club. I wont say on a public forum how old I was when I first got behind the wheel - but it was a bit younger than the law allowed.
