Overview
This course is specifically designed for those people wanting to get a Light Rigid driver’s licence. Holding an LR licence allows you to drive a rigid vehicle, including bus and truck, that has a gross vehicle mass (GVM) greater than 4.5 tonnes but not more than 8 tonnes or which seats more than 12 people (including the driver). Plenty of driver training time, combined with theoretical and practical learning activities, ensures your best chance of successfully obtaining a light rigid licence.
