Class C driving

The Class C driver's license allows for the operation of trucks and tractors with a payload of 3.5 tons or more — a segment of vehicles that has a very high demand for drivers in the Central Highlands region. Those with a Class C license are also permitted to operate vehicles in category B. BMTC provides comprehensive training, combining in-depth theoretical knowledge and practical experience on real trucks, ensuring that students can confidently and safely operate vehicles in any terrain.
