Medium Rigid Truck Licence

With a medium rigid truck licence, you can drive trucks or vehicles with two axels and a GVM greater than 8 tonnes. Nearly all modern Medium Rigid (MR) Trucks have Synchromesh or Automatic Gearboxes; therefore, a Condition B restriction will have little impact on which medium rigid vehicles you can drive.

If you have to drive a medium rigid vehicle with a crash gearbox, you would need to complete your test in our Unrestricted Heavy Rigid Truck.
If you only want an Automatic Truck Licence, consider completing your test in our Medium Rigid Automatic Truck.
If you have an Automatic Car Licence, you will remove this restriction from your car licence by completing your licence test in our Medium Rigid Synchromesh Truck.

Burleigh Driver Training School provides high-quality truck licence training in Gold Coast, Brisbane, Tweed Heads, and Murwillumbah. We offer MR Truck Licence in QLD and NSW at competitive prices.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently completed my HR driver training with Peter. He was a thorough and excellent instructor who was able to get me over my nerves and through a successful driving examination and knowledge test, even on a rainy day.  Absolutely would recommend.

3 Types of MR Licences

Medium Rigid Unconditional (MR)

Drivers with a Medium Rigid Unconditional level of driving experience face no restrictions on the gearbox. With this licence type, you can drive any MR vehicle with an automatic, synchromesh, or non-synchromesh gearbox.

Medium Rigid Condition B (MRB)

Drivers with Medium Rigid Condition B driving licences can drive all MR vehicles with a manual or automatic gearbox.

Medium Rigid Condition A (MRA)

After completing your MR truck training and passing the tests, you can only drive an MR vehicle with an automatic gearbox (If you hold a Automatic Car or Light Rigid Licence.)

Our Medium Rigid Trucks

Our MR trucks have either 6 Speed Synchromesh or a Allison Automatic Gearbox. A Synchromesh gearbox is the same style that you find in manual cars with the Automatic Gearboxes operating the same as a automatic car gearbox.

If you have a manual car licence and do your licnece in the Automatic Tuck you will receive a Condition B Licence.
