This is an on-road test administered by the Department of Transport and Main Roads , to test your driving skills and general road awareness. You will also be expected to provide proof of identity and complete a number of administrative tasks to obtain your license. Read more about what to bring to your practical driving test. The most effective way to prepare for your practical driving test is to accumulate driving experience in a number of conditions and environments.
You should aim to practice driving at night, in rainy weather, in peak-hour traffic, and any other challenging circumstances you are likely to experience once you gain your provisional license. We also recommend learning from more than one supervisor, whether that be your parents, siblings, or friends.
Doing so will allow you to learn from different driving styles, and pick up skills that otherwise might have been missed. And if possible, it is best to learn from a professional driving instructor as early on in your driving experience as possible, to correct problem areas before they become bad habits. Once you have accumulated enough driving experience to feel confident driving independently, one of the best ways to prepare for your practical driving test is to understand what the driving examiner is looking for.
If you were under 25 when you got your red Ps, it gets more complicated. Although you will have to pass the HPT to progress, the type and conditions of your new licence will depend on your age when you got your red Ps:.
Despite the complex nature of this system, basically you've got to be on your provisional licence whatever you get when you pass the practical driving test for 12 months before attempting the HPT. If you pass, you will progress to either the provisional P2 or open licence depending on your age. Periods in which your licence has been expired, suspended or you are disqualified do not count towards the stated time requirements.
You must also be at least 18, prove your identity, and pay the licence and test fees. When you pass the HPT, your green Ps provisional P2 licence is valid for up to 5 years or until you get your open licence.
In addition to following the road rules like all road users should, there are specific rules associated with a provisional P2 licence licence. Disobeying these additional rules could result in heavy fines or loss of licence. For comprehensive information on the provisional P2 licence and Hazard Perception Test, please refer to the Department of Transport and Main Roads website.
