Get Your Truck Licence with Real Industry Training
Truck driver training that’s built for real roads — not just passing a test. We offer HR, HC, and LR licences in both manual (crash box) and automatic vehicles.
Too many new drivers are trained by people who’ve never been in the industry — leading to confusion, stress, and test fails. We fix that with hands-on training from instructors who’ve actually done the job.

Real Experience. Real Results.
I’m John — founder and head trainer at Gold Coast Truck Driving School. I’ve spent over 32 years behind the wheel of everything from local delivery trucks to FIFO road trains and interstate B-Doubles.
Driving has been in my blood for generations — my dad drove B-Doubles until he was 72, and now my own kids can drive too. That legacy is what inspired me to start this school: to teach the next generation of truck drivers the right way.
