Light Rigid (LR) licence

STEP 1 Learn to drive

If you hold a current C class driver's licence, you can begin to learn to drive LR class vehicles.

You do not need to apply for a learner's permit.

When learning to drive you must:

  • be accompanied by a supervisor who is either:
    • a licensed driving instructor holding an LR or higher class driver's licence, or
    • a person who has held a current LR driver's licence for at least 4 years
  • display L plates on the front and back of the vehicle when you are driving.
  • not exceed the posted speed limit, and you cannot exceed 100 km/h.
  • not have a blood alcohol concentration exceeding 0.00%
  • not drive in areas where learners are not permitted.
Once you've learned to drive, it's time to submit an application form.
