    Hi
    Do normal road rules apply to C licences.

    As in, can I accompany a c-learner, with him driving. I have a full c licence and both of us will be insured by our company.

    Thx

    The rules are the same, here's the info taken from Citizen Information:

    http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/travel_and_recreation/motoring_1/driver_licensing/learner_driving_permits_for_buses_and_trucks.html
    Bus and truck drivers with a learner permit must be accompanied at all times by, and be under the supervision of, someone with a current driving licence for the same type of vehicle. Also, the person accompanying you must have had the driving licence for at least 2 years.

    You're sure about the insurance? Personally, I've never heard of a commercial policy covering learner drivers. Just curious if this is common.

    The truck insurers in my job covered me on a learners permit as long as all legal requirements such as accompanying driver being present were adhered to.
