Jefkking Clutched December 16, 2011 Share December 16, 2011 Class 4A only issue to you by LTA / TP if you're Bus Captain of SBS Transit / SMRT and you must also have an Vocational Licence holder and once you quit to be a Bus Captain, Class 4A MUST surrender. Go & take Class 4 better and you can driver trucks / coaches / public buses. (Class 4 well recongised than 4A) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you just want to drive private coach take Class 4 instead, then take the bus driver vocational licence. Can keep and renew even if you don't drive after that. Class 4A has to be surrendered when you quit driving for SBS or SMRT. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should call LTA to clarify this point, since they are the controlling body for such licencing. They should have all your answers and also the most accurate answers too.

Whattafarck 1st Gear December 16, 2011 Share December 16, 2011 Class 4A only for SBS/SMRT public buses... Vocational licence...3 &/or 4..depends on your driving licence...lets u drive all other public transport..vans, buses etc...CB,PZ,PA etc. 3 full day course..theory only..no practical. fee abt $100...i think. go to ssdc or call them for clarification. http://www.ssdcl.com.sg/course-bus-vocational.asp Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jefkking Clutched December 17, 2011 Share December 17, 2011 (edited) Class 3A licence can't take Class 4, 4A & Class 5 as these heavy vehicles were mostly manual gear operations / type. That's for sure. So, think twice before heading for Class 3A licence as need to re-take the Clsss 3 licence again.
