If you've already gone through the Class 5 Level 1 Learner and Class 5 Level 2 Novice Driver licensing stages of the Newfoundland Graduated Licensing program, then you've already done most of the heavy lifting. A NL Class 5 License is automatically awarded to Newfoundland drivers who have demonstrated excellent driving skills over the 12 month duration of the Class 5 Level 2 novice driver stage. Once you have your final, unrestricted, full NL Class 5 license, you have complete driving freedom with your car or light truck. Obviously, you should continue to practice safe driving techniques and stay within the rules of the road, to maintain safety for all road users. And of course, you must also carry sufficient NL motor vehicle insurance, as well as have all of the required motor vehicle documentation to remain within the law.

Getting Your Final Newfoundland Driving Licence
By this point you should have developed a strong foundation in Newfoundland & Labrador road signs, road rules and safe driving practices. The Newfoundland GDL process is designed to ensure that once NL drivers reach the final NL Class 5 license level, they are 100% comfortable, safe and capable behind the wheel of a passenger vehicle or light truck.
