    • any vehicle for which an operating licence is issued
    • dangerous goods vehicle (e.g. fuel tanker).
    Age restrictions for the motor vehicle categories are as follows:
    • you should be 18 years or older to hold a PrDP for a goods vehicle
    • you should be 21 years or older to hold a PrDP for a passenger vehicle
    • you should be 25 years or older to hold a PrDP for a dangerous goods vehicle.
    You can only obtain a PrDP if you:
