About the Licence
A condition 'B' is placed on any heavy vehicle licence that is obtained in a vehicle with automatic or synchromesh transmission. It prevents the driving heavy vehicles with constant-mesh transmission (road ranger or crashbox). Having the 'B' condition removed allows the driver to drive heavy vehicles with any transmission type.
About the Training
Heavy Vehicle Competency Based Assessment is run by Roads and Maritime Services (formerly Roads and Traffic Authority RTA) accredited Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) with heavy vehicle licensed driving instructors.
In the course students will benefit from one on one training with our instructors to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to safely drive a heavy vehicle fitted with a road ranger (constant-mesh) gearbox.
During the course students will be trained and assessed in the correct use of a road ranger gearbox with the final competency assessment (FCA) to be undertaken at the end of the course. Upon successful completion students will be able to have condition B removed from their current licence, which will allow them to drive heavy vehicles fitted with any transmission type.
Course Requirements
You are required to hold at a minimum your heavy rigid licence or higher.

Competency Based Training/Assessment
This is a competency based training and assessment course, and the time we allocate for participants to complete this course is based on an estimate which we have historically found to cover a high proportion of participants. As everyone learns at different rates, some participants will need more time than what we have estimated to reach the required level of competency. In this scenario, any additional training to complete this class of licence will be charged at $880 per day.
Payment Terms
- Payment is due prior to commencing training and can be done either online beforehand or in person on the day.
