Applications for a Western Australian driver's licence must be submitted in person at a Driver and Vehicle Services centre or regional agent. All applicants will be required to take the eye test when applying for a driver's licence.
This will be conducted at the Driver and Vehicle Services centre or regional agent when you apply for your licence. If you use any visual aids to pass the eyesight test, your licence will be endorsed to show that you must wear those aids when driving.
If you fail the PDA, you will need to retake the assessment after a minimum of seven calendar days. This will allow you more time to improve your practical driving skills and therefore achieve the required driving standard. There are no exemptions to this waiting period.
Once you have passed your PDA, your licence record will be updated to show that you are now authorised to drive LR class heavy vehicles. However, a new driver's licence card will only be issued when you renew your current licence. You may wish to order a replacement licence that will reflect your updated vehicle class. If you have a provisional licence, you will still have the same provisional status while driving an LR class heavy vehicle.
If your existing vehicle licence is a full licence, your LR class licence will also be a full licence. Visit Get a provisional licence for more information.
If you have a licence with a restriction to automatic transmission and you complete the PDA in a vehicle of a higher class fitted with a manual transmission, the restriction will be removed and only the higher class will show on your licence. A synchromesh transmission is a type of manual gearbox found in modern cars and trucks which uses synchronising collars to aid the driver in making smooth gear changes.
A non-synchromesh transmission such as a ranger or crash box does not use these collars, and timing of a gear change has to be done manually by the driver usually using a double de-clutch technique.
If you complete the PDA in a heavy vehicle of a higher class fitted with a non-synchromesh transmission you can drive vehicles except motorcycles fitted with automatic or manual gearboxes of either type. To remove any automatic restriction from a motorcycle R-E or R class you would need to pass a PDA on a motorcycle fitted with a manual transmission. This is applied if you are suffering from a medical condition and require training prior to re-applying for your driver licence.
You may only drive when accompanied by a person holding a full licence for the class of vehicle being driven. You must wear corrective lenses at all times while driving a commercial passenger vehicle or a vehicle over eight tonnes. This is applied when you need corrective lenses to pass the eye test to commercial vehicle driver standards.
