Pre-Test Lesson or Mock Driving Test?

A pre-test driving lesson includes instruction and correction throughout the session. Your instructor can explain mistakes, demonstrate safer techniques and give you opportunities to practise again.

A mock driving test is different. It is designed to simulate the conditions of an actual assessment, with limited assistance during the test section and detailed feedback afterwards.

Your instructor can recommend the most suitable option based on your experience, confidence and test date.

Driving Instructor and Driving Examiner

A driving instructor provides training, explains road rules and helps you develop safe driving skills.

A driving examiner Darwin applicants attend will assess whether the applicant demonstrates the required standard during the official practical driving test. Booking lessons does not guarantee that an applicant will pass, as the final result depends on the driving standard demonstrated during the assessment.

Automatic and Manual Pre-Test Lessons

Pre-test driving lessons are available in our automatic training vehicle.

If you require a manual lesson, you may use your own suitable and legally roadworthy manual vehicle. Please let us know which transmission you require when making your booking.

When Should You Book Your Pre-Test Lesson?

It is best to book early enough to allow additional practice if your instructor identifies areas that need improvement.

Some learners book one lesson shortly before their test, while others benefit from several structured lessons. The number of lessons required depends on your experience, driving habits and ability to apply feedback consistently.

Important Information
