HOW TO GET YOUR CLASS 4 UNRESTRICTED COMMERCIAL DRIVER'S LICENSE
With the start of a new job, I found myself needing to upgrade my driver’s license to a (British Columbia) Class 4 Unrestricted Commercial Driver's License (for 15 passenger vans, small school buses, ambulances etc.). I never imagined I would need to do this and felt like a nervous 16 year old all over again.
There's some information out there about what you need to know, but not much about how to walk through it (especially regarding the pre-trip inspection). I did my own research and a few friends who had been through the ordeal gave me pointers. When it was all said and done I decided to forward what I had learned on to whoever was interested and this friendly little Class 4 course is the result.
Everything I have provided FOR FREE will help to prepare you for your test day include a step-by-step written pre-trip inspection guide.
If you want further help, I have also provided for about the price of a sandwich an additional two video package that you can purchase-to-view.
All the best!
STEP BY STEP VIDEO GUIDE
for your class 4 unrestricted commercial driver's license
"Thank you so much for your written walk around instructions, I studied them like crazy! I had to adjust them to the van I used but they were a life saver! I was told by 3 Van rental companies that I wouldn’t pass the first try. Well I did pass the first time, so thank you again!!! B"
PRE-TRIP INSPECTION GUIDE
5. TERMINOLOGY
Video 5 and 6 are available for purchase-to-view. In this video we will walk through some parts and terminology: what should you be looking for? And what are these parts called? I will also give you some ideas about how you can talk about what you are looking at so that you can use this phrasing when you do your Class 4 test.
Read the "Purchase-to-view" form below for details.
6. TIMED PRE-TRIP INSPECTION
Video 5 and 6 are available for purchase-to-view. In this video I demonstrate a timed pre-trip inspection. This is helpful for those who have read the guide and would also like a visual.
Read the "Purchase-to-view" form below for details.
PURCHASE-TO-VIEW VIDEOS 5 AND 6
Originally I offered Videos 5 and 6 as a purchase-to-view or $10.00 for both. However, I have been finding some glitches in communication between the site and those wanting the videos (annoying)...so for now, I am offering the links right here. If you choose to send $10 -- its the honour system :)

Make sure you read the updates on my site for a few additions that are not on the video. I add in some tips when I hear from people who do the test and find ICBC has looked for additional things. All the best and I hope you find this helpful and you pass! Teresa

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!
I'm interested in making life a little better and a little brighter from my little corner of the planet.
I care about some big thing and I am interested in a lot of little random things too.
I try to be intentional with my time, treasure
and whatever talent I have been given to make a difference.
I hope you have found this site to be generous
with helpful free information and if you do make a purchase, or want to send a tip my way,
please know that you are helping me support my family
with a little work on the side.
Teresa
