Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get my Driver's licence?

• Under the NSW licensing scheme, you need to log at least 120 hours driving experience, including 20 hours of night driving to qualify for a driving test. The driving test is a practical, on-road test that you take with a Service NSW testing officer. It focuses on hazard perception and has been designed for learners with extensive driving experience.

Do I need formal driving lessons to get my Ps?

• No. But for every 1 hour of structured driving lesson you complete with a licenced Driving Instructor, you can record 3 hours driving experience in your log book! For more information on Learner driver requirements, visit the Roads and Maritime Services website.

How long does a lesson go for?

• A normal lesson goes for 1 hour and your Instructor will pick you up and drop you off at your location. You can also choose to have a double length session.

I've been practicing my own circuit close to where I'll be taking my driving test. Am I able to practice in my local area?
