    Vehicles used in the course of driving lessons by any person wishing to obtain a driving licence or Driver CPC

    Vehicles used for the non-commercial carriage of passengers or goods for personal use

    Vehicles carrying material or equipment to be used by the driver in the course of their work, providing that driving the vehicle is not the driver’s principal activity
