In the uk a class 1 (lgv) is an articulated truck with a max load of 44 t and class 2 is a non articulated with a max load of 32 t with a max of 4 Axel's . hope this helps
Class 1 (C+E) is an articulated lorry and class 2 (C) is a rigid which you can drive with a trailer of no more than 750kgs mam. If you have class 1 then you can tow any trailer on a rigid up to the maximum mam that the lorry can tow
The only difference is the types of vehicle you can drive. In fact there is no such thing any more as a class one or two licenec but mose people still refer to them as classes

To be able to drive a Class One you will need an unrestricted CE category on your licence - A CE is a vehicle over 7.5 Tonnes with any size trailer - Arctic Lorries

To be able to drive a Class Two you will need a category C or CE (102) on your licence - A CE (102) is a vehicle over 7.5 Tonnes with any size trailer but the connection must be by draw bar - A category C is a rigid vehicle over 7.5 tonnes with a trailer up to 750kg.

You are also restricted to staging - so you have to pass a C before you can go for the CE

To get the licence you need to first apply for the provisional entitlement by completing a D2 and D4 (medical) - forms available from DVLA

You then need to take a theroy and practical test in the catergories.
