you would even if you had a full class 5 anyways. one test doesn't cover 2 classes here.your gonna have to do two road tests to get both your class 5 and 6. One in car and one on bike.
actually, if you do your full license test on the bike (if you had a class 7 and class 8) then you will get both class 5 and 6. basically if you can pass it on the bike they know you can handle a car.you would even if you had a full class 5 anyways. one test doesn't cover 2 classes here.
if you could do it with either the car or a bike then everyone would have both the class 5 AND 6. this is not the case. the ONLY way you can get BOTH in one shot is by doing your full license test on the BIKE. like i said, if you can pass it on the bike (re: harder to ride a bike than drive a car, which is obvious) then they think you are capable of driving a car. trust me, i've been doing all of this myself and have buddies that have done it both ways so i know how it works.Just a note, you only have to exit graduated licensing ONCE, you can take your final test 5 or 6 on either a car or a bike to get a full license on both. You do not have to exit with both.... you will have to do a novice test on both.
You can always call the Victoria/head office, they are much better versed than the local offices.
Hi, like I said you only have to EXIT graduated licensing once, I know because I DID ITif you could do it with either the car or a bike then everyone would have both the class 5 AND 6. .

Like this:
Here is the info directly off of the ICBC site:
"......Already have a B.C. driver's licence?
If you do already have a licence to drive (Class 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5), you go through a different, shorter process to get a motorcycle driver's 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. ......"
Again, better to actually call the victoria office to get info, you will get different info from anyone you ask... straight from the source you will get the real answers, that is what I did and it worked for me)
Again, we are talking graduated licensing. If you already have a class 5, it is different
i'm not sure about the 7L, i have only seen it done that way with a class 7 (passing the first road test to recieve your N). you will have to do your research on the 7L part. but if you have your car N (class 7) you can exit the GLP only taking the test to receive your class 6 and get the class 5 thrown in basically.so if i just leave my car license 7L alone.... and i get my full moto license of class 6
then by that time i have a full class 6 and a full class 5 ?!
i was thinking the same thing. exiting the N is what's being mentioned but the thread starter has L's not N's.Didn't some one say to exit the "novice" licencing program? Novice as in "N". I'm not 100% sure, but that is how I would perceive it.
Your 7L gets converted to a 5L. Classes 7 and 8 are for GLP, if you do a final bike road test and pass, then you're out of GLP. Your 8L becomes a full class 6 and the 7L is converted to the 5L. I believe you still need to do a second test for the car. If you just ignore it, the 5L could be dropped from your licence when you renew and then you'll only have a class 6, no class 5. Learner's do expire.so if i just leave my car license 7L alone.... and i get my full moto license of class 6
then by that time i have a full class 6 and a full class 5 ?!
