What you need to get your HC (Constantmesh) Licence

  • You need to have held a class MR or HR Licence for 12 months or more.
  • Pass an RTA HC Knowledge Test ($37 RTA fee)
  • Pass an RTA Eyesight test
  • At that time ask for a CBA (Competency Based Assessment) Logbook and CBA guide book. ($22 RTA fee)
  • Contact ABC driving school on 9635 1300 to book your 2 day HC Constantmesh course. Please have your Log Book with you when you call, as there are details within the Log Book which we require for processing your booking.
  • A $400 deposit is required to secure and confirm your booking.
  • FAIR GO POLICY – At ABC driving school Parramatta we realise that the cost of the HC course appears to be quite high. However, UNLIKE many other driving schools we do not ask for full payment up-front. The $400 deposit is like a safety net. Once you have received four hundred dollars-worth of training, you and your instructor will discuss your progress and possible options.
    • Option 1 – continue training and complete within the originally quoted 16 hours at $125 per hour - total cost $2000.
    • Option 2 – if you can already competently drive a Constantmesh (Roadranger) gearbox, we will discuss reducing the estimated number of hours required to complete the course – total cost less than $2000.
    • Option 3 – recognise that for you, 16 hours may not be enough, and you may choose to continue at $125 per hour until you meet the course requirements - total cost greater than $2000.
    • Option 4 – recognise that for you, the Roadranger gearbox is proving to be more difficult to master than you had anticipated. You may choose to transfer to our HC Synchromesh model and acquire a Heavy Combination Licence with a ‘B Restriction’ (for details see our HC Synchromesh webpage) - total cost $2000.
    • Option 5 – if you choose to do so, you are welcome to stop the course at this point, and incur no further costs. $400 is all you pay.
