[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 550359, member: 250"] Agreed... A Provisional driving licence is for someone who has never passed a driving test and is NOT legally allowed to drive ANY vehicle unsupervised. If you have passed a UK driving test and are allowed to drive "UNSUPERVISED" you have a "FULL" driving licence... The category of vehicles you can drive is a completely different ball game altogether in my opinion! e.g. Vans Trucks over a certain weight. Towing trailers over a certain weight. Vehicles that can carry over a certain amount of passengers.. (e.g. I am sure with a Bog-Standard car driving licence you can also drive a bus.. as long as there are below a specified minimum number of passengers!!) You do NOT need to be able to drive EVERY category of vehicle to have a "Full Driving Licence"! Full -vs- Provisional is about if you are legally allowed to drive on the public highway without a supervisor/instructor watching over you!! Unless the job application specifically stated "Manual Transmission" then I think you are in a very strong place to argue your case and insist they provide an automatic vehicle so as to not discriminate you from other applicants.. equal rights and all that!
