Frequently asked questions

Good to know before your first lesson.

Can’t find what you’re after? Call 0413 475 914 and we’ll happily talk it through.

Do you teach in an automatic car?

Yes — all our lessons are in a modern, dual-control automatic. Automatics are simpler to drive, so there’s no clutch or gears to worry about and you can focus on the road, your steering and good habits. Just keep in mind an automatic licence lets you drive automatic cars only.

How many lessons will I need?

It really depends on your experience and how much private practice you get between lessons. Complete beginners usually need a series of lessons over several weeks; if you’re already driving and just polishing up for the test, a few may be enough. We’ll give you an honest estimate after your first lesson.

Can I use your car for the driving test?

Yes. Our Test-Day Package includes a warm-up lesson before your test and use of our dual-control car for the test itself, so you sit it in a vehicle you already know. Test booking fees payable to Service NSW are separate.

Do you pick up and drop off?

We do — free pick-up and drop-off is included within our coverage area. Let us know whether home, work, school or uni is easiest and we’ll come to you.

How much do lessons cost?

We keep our rates very affordable and offer a range of single lessons and packages. The best way to get an exact price for what you need is a quick call on 0413 475 914 — we’re happy to talk you through the options.

Which suburbs do you cover?

We’re based in Lidcombe and teach across Strathfield, Homebush, Flemington, Auburn, Rockdale, Kogarah, Hurstville, Penshurst and nearby suburbs. See the areas page or call to check yours.

Do the lessons count toward my logbook hours?

Yes. Time with a professional instructor is recorded in your learner logbook and counts toward the hours you need on your Ls. We’ll help you keep track along the way.

I’m a nervous or first-time driver — is that okay?

Absolutely, and you’re not alone. A lot of our learners start out anxious. We keep early lessons on quiet streets, explain everything clearly and never rush you. Most people surprise themselves with how quickly the nerves settle.

Still have a question?

We’re happy to help. Call or email and we’ll get back to you.
