    Automatic Truck Training Licence For LR, MR & HR Trucks

    Why pay more to learn a skill you don’t need or have already learnt? We offer automatic truck licence upgrades in classes LR, MR & HR trucks

    You can save on the number of lessons you need because we don’t have to teach and assess you driving the non-synchromesh (‘crash’) gearbox.

    There are licence restrictions to be aware of with automatic truck training:

    1. You can do a licence upgrade in an automatic truck, and if you currently hold an unrestricted licence of class HR or above you are not restricted again (you have previously demonstrated competence with the ‘crash’ gearbox).

    2. Otherwise, you will be issued with a ‘restricted’ automatic license. This may be suitable for many jobs in the industry that require you only to hold an automatic license (for example, agitator, waste management, buses, mining or the MFS – check with the employer first).

    We are always available for refresher training in a crash gearbox, or additional training as required to remove your license restriction.

    What is an automatic truck license, and who needs it?

    An automatic truck license enables you to operate trucks with automatic transmission systems. It is an excellent option for learners seeking a simpler, less demanding approach to truck driving without managing manual gear changes.

    Can I upgrade an automatic truck license to a manual one later?
    Yes, if you initially obtain an automatic truck license, you can later enroll in manual transmission training and pass a practical test to remove the automatic-only restriction. This is a common pathway for drivers looking to broaden their career opportunities.
    Is automatic truck training easier than manual?

    Many learners find automatic truck training easier because it eliminates the need to focus on clutch control and gear changes. This allows you to concentrate more on steering, manoeuvring, and road awareness during training.

    Are there specific vehicles used for automatic training?

    Yes, we provide modern, fully insured automatic trucks that meet Australian licensing standards. These vehicles are designed to offer a safe and comfortable learning experience while preparing you for real-world scenarios.

    How long does automatic truck license training take?

    Training duration varies but typically ranges from 1 to 2 days, depending on your experience and progress. Our courses are tailored to help you gain the confidence and skills needed to pass the licensing test efficiently.
