Driver licensing

Licence restrictions

Restrictions are placed on a licence to ensure that you can safely operate a motor vehicle based on your own experience, qualifications, specific skills, and abilities.

Restrictions on your licence may be issued by:

  • ICBC - A restriction may be imposed by ICBC based on the outcome of a knowledge test, road test, or road signs and signals test.

  • RoadSafetyBC - Restrictions may be applied if a driver has a medical condition or physical limitation that requires the use of a device or technology to safely operate a vehicle.

  • Regulatory requirements - Restrictions may be included as a part of a regulatory requirement for your licence. For example, a supervisory restriction on a learner licence. 

There may be the option of an appeal, reconsideration or removal a restriction based on which one it is, and who issued it.
