A class 5 license permits you to drive any two axle single motor vehicle, including a moped but excluding a motorcycle. It is the most common type of license because almost every personal vehicle is a two axle single motor vehicle including cars, SUVs, and most pick-up trucks. Additionally, you will be allowed to operate a recreational vehicle with a trailer so long as the trailer has no more than 2 axles and is NOT equipped with air-brakes. You must be at least 16 years old to obtain a class 5 license.  You must be at least 14 years old and have a class 7 license in order take this course.

In preparation for the test, you can download the driving rules booklet from the Alberta Government Website.
