Learning to drive is an important rite of passage for many Australian teens. Once you’ve earned your keys, a whole world of opportunity opens up to you. As exciting as this time may be, it’s important to take the time to learn everything you need to know to be a good driver. Onroad Driving School has been in the Hurstville area for nearly a decade, and we can help you get started right.
Preparing for your first Driving Lesson in Hurstville
Maybe you've just turned 16, and you're ready to get your Learner's License. Congratulations! You are about to begin a new journey in your life. Learning to drive can be fun, and our professional trainers help manage the fears many novice drivers feel when they get behind the wheel for the first time.
You probably know already that before you can start driving, you’ll need to pass the Driver Knowledge Test at a testing location. This touch-screen based test will assess whether you know the fundamentals of the road. Be sure to brush up on the rules before you go, and you’ll likely have no problem passing this simple test.
Once you have your L-plate, you’re ready to start logging your practice hours. You’ll need a year of driving and 120 hours logged before you can get your Provisional P1 License.
Once you’re ready to get behind the wheel, you can schedule a driving lesson. We’ll come to you in Hurstville, and work at your pace to get you comfortable with driving. Our highly-qualified trainers are available every day, and we can teach you the basics of driving for either automatic or manual transmission vehicles.
Your exciting year ahead
For teens learning to drive in Hurstville, our driving school will teach you everything you need to know about driving safely under all road conditions. Data shows that Learners are at a heightened risk of getting involved in an accident during their first year of driving, while those who learn alongside a professional have a much lower risk.
Our driving school teaches you how to drive defensively so that you can identify common road hazards and respond to them safely. We will show you how to manage your speed and maintain a safe following distance from the vehicle ahead of you. We'll tell you what you need to know to avoid getting involved in an accident, and what to do if you suspect a nearby driver is behaving dangerously. With all these strategies and more, we arm you with the knowledge you need to be a better, safer driver!
