FAQ'S
How many lessons will I need?
There is no minimum or maximum lessons required for a person to pass their probationary licence test. However, if you are under the age of 21 years you are required to have completed 120 hours of supervised driving and record it in your log book. You will be asked to present your log to the testing officer on the day of your probationary test. Also your driver trainer will give you an accurate assessment on how many lessons you may need on completion of your first drive.
Manual or Auto?
The choice is up to you but you need to be mindful that if you gain an automatic licence you will only be able to drive an automatic vehicle until your probationary period ends. If you gain a manual licence you can drive both manual and automatic cars straight away. Question's for yourself might be, could I be required to drive a manual vehicle for work one day or to get a mate out of trouble??
