Whats an A-Class Drivers License

[Queen Bee]

Hi people

Can't find this anywhere, I'm googled out, so thought you guys would know.

In WA, A-Class Drivers License, is that just a car? (I googled WA licenses, and there was no such license?)


Cheers

C Class = Car

Those with Automatic licences only have C-A on the Drivers Licence

OK thanks, wondered if it was just for automatics

search for A Class in these groups.

A class license means you can drive ferraris and masseratis

"C" is the class of licence. "A" is a condition of the licence.

A "C" class "A" condition licence holder is authorised to drive a manual vehicle if supervised and displaying L plates.

Not sure what was for automatic licences only prior to C-A Class (maybe E ?)

Licence restriction codes
Restrictions on a licence class, identify the limitations under which the licence class has been issued. These restrictions will be detailed on the reverse of your licence or on a separate notice provided at the time of renewal.

For example, a car licence with an automatic transmission restriction will appear as C-A. This will be detailed on the reverse of your licence to indicate that you are restricted to driving automatic cars.

The following are standard class restrictions. Additional restrictions may also be imposed.
