Your Rights & Obligations

If your heavy vehicle licence has a condition “B” restriction, you’re limited to driving vehicles with automatic or synchromesh gearboxes. This means you can’t drive vehicles equipped with a non-synchromesh gearbox (often called a crash box). To remove this condition, you’ll need training to learn how to operate a non-synchromesh gearbox.

We allocate 8 hours training and assessment for the condition b removal. However, it can take longer depending on student competency.

Cost: $1200

One-on-one practical training

In order to apply for this training, all candidates are required to hold a licence with a B condition for either
- Heavy Rigid (HR) Licence, or
- Heavy Combination (HC) Licence
Upon successful completion of this training, all candidates who pass the test will have the Condition B removed from their licence, and will be certified to hold an unrestricted heavy vehicle licence that can drive auto, synchromesh or constant mesh transmissions.

Students who are found competent will be provided with the appropriate forms from the trainer which will need to be presented to a Transport for NSW Centre. The course price does not include the cost for issuing a new drivers licence.

Training/assessment can be conducted at AOTA Training Facility – 275a Princess Highway, Unanderra NSW
