Getting a Class 5 Yukon Drivers License

A Class 5 Yukon drivers license is the final Yukon Graduated Drivers Licensing level for car, van & light truck drivers. (For motorcycle riders, see here.) Once you have completed the Yukon Learners & Yukon Novice stages, you can qualify for a Class 5 licence, with which you can drive anywhere in the Yukon restriction free. Having a full Class 5 Yukon drivers license means you can also act as a supervising or co-driver for learners, so make sure you take this responsibility very seriously and continue to always practice safe driving. Obviously, you must also have the appropriate documentation for your vehicle and adequate Yukon vehicle insurance to drive legally on public roads.
