Good day fellow tsikoteers....just want to clarify if a holder of an rc-2 license, does this mean you could also operate an automatic "matic" transmission vehicles?....I browsed at the back of the license card to see that there is a restriction code 4 and 5 pertaining to "matic" operation...does this mean you have to have at least rc-4 to be able to drive "matic" cars?...Anybody with inputs on this?....Thank you and good day.

if your restriction is 2 you can also drive automatic transmission upto 4500 kgs Gross Vehicle Weight so pag REstriction 2 ka pwede ka sa 4
but if your restriction is 4 di ka pwede sa 2
same din pag 3 restriction mo pwede ka sa restriction 5 whic is above 4500 kgs GVW
same goes here if restriction mo is 5 di ka pwede sa 3

RC 2 allows you to drive any 4-wheeled vehicle up to 4500 kgs Gross Vehicle Weight (cars, vans, SUVs, etc) regardless of transmission (auto or manual),
RC 3 allows you to drive vehicles 4500 kgs - up Gross Vehicle Weight (trucks, light trucks, etc.) regardless of transmission (auto or manual)
RC 4 restricts you to drive in automatic ONLY and you need either/both RC 2 and 3 respectively
RC 1 allows you to drive 2 or 3 wheeled vehicles above 50cc in displacement, also regardless of transmission (auto or manual).
I hope this clarifies everything. Also, please do a Search first before creating a new thread. There are numerous threads about this and this has been discussed for the nth time.

July 10th, 2008 09:31 PM #5I didn't know that. Thanks. :tounge2:
My restrictions are 1 & 2. If I upgraded it to 1,2 & 3, would I have to be a professional license holder? Is it possible?

July 10th, 2008 09:55 PM #6unfortunately, the phrase "regardless of transmission" is not specifically printed on the license itself ... so this is one source of kotongero's income for unwary drivers with RC2 and driving an automatic car
this was not an issue when practically all cars were manual ... now that automatics abound, kotongeros are taking advantage, especially on the younger drivers

If you are a holder of a Non-Pro license then you have to upgrade your license to a Prof one...Non-Pro can have a max of 1 & 2 rc (correct me if I'm wrong here), if you are already a Prof license holder then you also have to take exams: drug, written and practical (I hope I got this right). Hope I helped.
