ADR Dangerous Goods Packages

Drivers transporting dangerous goods by road in bulk or in packages over a given amount, can only do so if in possession of an ADR Driver Training Qualification. In order to gain the Driver Training Certificate, candidates must pass examinations in a minimum of three modules; ie. the core module in packaged goods and at least one of the nine hazard classes.

A driver currently holding an ADR Driver Training Certificate can, at any time from the end of the 4th year, undertake a refresher course allowing them to obtain a further 5 year ADR Driver Training Certificate. The refresher training should be carried out at least 3 months before the licence expiry date.
