    • Supervised Practice

    • As an authorised representative of the business I understand that this is an application to register our employee with the TTA's DriveTrain program.  If confirmed, this business will provide supervised practice for the employee to develop the skills and knowledge to drive a heavy vehicle to the class in which the licence upgrade is sought.  We understand and will ensure that when a person is learning to drive a heavy vehicle, they must meet all eligibility requirements for that licence, including holding a Learner licence where required, and must:

      • have a Supervisory Driver sitting next to them who has a licence of the same or higher class of heavy vehicle that the student driver is learning and has held that licence for at least 12 months.
      • display L-plates clearly at the front and back of the vehicle.
      • never drive with alcohol in their body.
      • obey the learner speed limit of 90km/h even when a higher speed limit applies.
        These requirements apply whether or not the student driver is required to hold a heavy vehicle learner licence.
