If you get a code 10 driver's licence, you can drive cars and unarticulated trucks - right.

If you get a code 08 driver's licence, you can drive cars, but not trucks. So code 08 is the "lesser" licence in the pecking order of assumed driving skills.

In trying to get one of my staff sorted with a drivers licence, it has been pointed out that it's better to go for the code 10 because it's a much easier test - and you get to drive cars anyway.

Am I the only one that finds this wierd?
