An MC(Multi Combination) Truck Licence is a vehicle towing more than 1 trailer.
An MC Truck licence allows you to drive trucks commonly called a B-Double and Road Train.
You must have held a HR or HC licence for at least 12 months. The upgrade is done over a 16 hour course (minimum), students recieve a statement of attainment upon completion of the course.
We offer TLIC4006 Drive Multi Combination courses in either one of our prime movers: a Sitrak C7H Prime mover powered by a 540HP MC13 engine and a ZF 12 Speed Automated Manual Transmission or a Western Star FXB with 18 speed Eaton Fuller Road Ranger gearbox and 550hp CAT C15 twin turbo motor.
If you have a medical condition the code ‘M’ will be recorded on your licence. This means that when you drive you must carry a current medical certificate (this is detachable from your Medical Certificate for Motor Vehicle Driver form F3712) and drive in accordance with any stated conditions.
When upgrading to a higher class of licence, if you have a condition: M on your current licence you will need to visit your doctor to have the certificate updated to include the new class before you begin your training.
If you drive vehicles with a GVM of more than 8 tonnes, public passenger vehicles (for example buses, taxis or booked hire) or drive a vehicle that is licensed or required to be licensed to carry dangerous goods, you must meet the commercial vehicle driver medical standards in the Assessing Fitness to Drive publication.

All heavy vehicle training and assessment students must complete an alcohol breath test. A 0.00 reading is required by law. If any alcohol is detected, the session ends immediately, and all fees are forfeited. This procedure ensures the safety of our trainers, students, and the community, and helps maintain a safe, compliant training environment.
