Information
Requirements
On the day of your driving lesson, please bring your driving licence. If you don't have one, you can apply for one by clicking here. Alternatively, you will be able to get a application from your local post office. You need to be able to read new-style plates 20 meters away and 20.5 meters away for old-style plates. You will also need to do this on the day of your practical driving test. Failure to do so, the test will not be conducted and thus your test will be cancelled and fees will be lost.

Theory test (part 1)-
A computer based car and motorcycle multiple-choice test that lasts for 57 minutes with the pass mark being 43 out of 50. After the multiple-choice part, you can choose to have a break of up to 3 minutes before the hazard perception part begins.
