There are Three Types of HR Licences

Automatic: This allows you to drive automatic HR only

Synchromesh: This allows you to drive vehicles with synchromesh gearboxes or automatic gearboxes only (single clutch).

Roadranger: This allows you to drive any type of HR vehicles (double clutch).

In Addition we have an automatic Bus if you are looking for a position as a Bus Driver and you would prefer to get your HR licence in a bus.

Heavy Rigid – Double Clutch – Unrestricted Licence

Open new possibilities with an open class HR Driving Licence.  This licence entitles you to drive a Heavy Vehicle with 3 or more axles and a gross vehicle mass of 8000 kg.

The ‘’open class’’ licence requires a knowledge of the Road Ranger gearbox and a ‘’ double-clutching’’ technique to enable smooth gear changing.

Heavy Rigid – Single Clutch – Restricted Licence

The HR-B Licence entitles the holder to drive HR vehicles with automatic and synchromesh gearboxes.

While not as challenging as the Road Ranger, the HR-B Licence opens many employment possibilities.

Many transport companies do not necessarily insist that drivers must possess an open class or B Class HR licence.

Substantial career opportunities exist within the area of bus and coach driving, which only requires an automatic licence to be successful within a truck driving role.

HR Licence allows you to drive Heavy Rigid – more than 8 tonnes Gross Vehicle Mass (no axle limit) +/- trailer (max 9 tonnes Gross Vehicle Mass).

All HR assessments are conducted with our approved assessors onsite.

If you hold an interstate or international licence, please contact the Dept of Transport to obtain either a Learners’ Permit or transfer your interstate licence to a WA licence.
