This page summarizes how to obtain a motorcycle driver's licenceif you already have a B.C. driver's licence (Class 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5).
If youdon't already hold a Class 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 licence, you must go through a longer, graduated process to get your motorcycle driver's licence. See Motorcycle (1st licence).
| Note: You only have to go through the Graduated Licensing Program once. For example, if you hold both a Class 7 novice and Class 8 novice licence, to exit GLP you may take either the Class 5 or Class 6 road test. If you hold a Class 7 novice licence and a Class 8 learner licence and wish to exit GLP, you would take the Class 5 road test. Your Class 8 learner licence would then be converted to a Class 6 learner licence. |
If you already hold a B.C. driver's licence, getting your Class 6 motorcycle driver's licence takes a minimum of about a month. Here's a quick summary of what you'll have to do:
