I went and got my HR learners today (Queensland) and was suprised that they don't actually upgrade your licence to say that you have a HR learning permit, all you have is the docket to say you passed the test.. Has anyone else done this before in QLD and can back up this story?
Thanks.

I have heard of that before, getting a learners for driving a truck I mean. Down here, you just chuck some 'Driver Under Instruction' plates and drive around with a suitably licenced driver.
Might pay to go back and ask the question of the Licensing Department.

Last Year. They tightened the laws about 5 years ago, but there has been a shortage of MC drivers, so they eased the laws again. For a while you had to get and have a HC (one trailer) for 3 years, and then go to Mt Cotton in Brisbane for the course, at about $1500. ATM its easy, not sure for how long?? Cheers, Mike |

I thought it was odd when you said it, there is a shortage of drivers everywhere.

No wonder there's a shortage of drivers. All you get is bashed by car drivers, media, police, RTA etc. Then you work twice as many hours as anyone else for less pay than McDonalds. Where's the positives?
I did the MC the hard way by the sound of it..... Full course, big bucks. Funny that I haven't had the need to drive a B-Double for maybe four years now - it's all HC at the moment. |
