Test centres

Plan your practical test.

Zillmere and Greenslopes offer practical car testing. Use the exact centre and address on your booking confirmation, then confirm instructor and vehicle availability. These are options to discuss, not an assigned centre or a promised test route.

Learning in Chermside

Fit the lesson around a clear starting point.

Chermside’s current roster lists Charlie, Christian and Stephane for automatic lessons, with Mark offering manual tuition. Use your transmission choice to narrow the calendars, then check the service attached to the appointment. Let your instructor know how much supervised practice you have had.

Council lists Chermside Library at 375 Hamilton Road. If you are arranging a lesson around a library visit or another nearby commitment, explain the timing and agree a precise meeting point. The venue address can help describe your plans without making its entrance or parking area the default pickup location.

If driving feels rushed, tell your instructor when that happens. You might need more time to notice signs, prepare for a turn or choose your position before a manoeuvre. Breaking the task into a clear sequence can help you understand what to look for before bringing the steps together.

Take one useful practice point away from each lesson and discuss it with your supervising driver. If your goal is test preparation, provide the booked centre and appointment and ask what skills need attention first. A lesson in Chermside does not mean your test uses a particular route or starts at a particular centre.

Your next step

From the first lesson to test day.

01

Start with a plan

Bring your current learner licence and tell your instructor what you have already practised. Check your seating position, mirrors and controls before moving off. Your instructor can explain how the dual controls support the lesson and agree a manageable starting point.

First-time Queensland car learners complete PrepL or the written road rules test before applying for a learner licence. Follow the conditions on your own licence.

Learner licence guide →
02

Make practice count

Under 25? You normally need 100 supervised logbook hours, including 10 at night. Up to your first 10 eligible accredited-trainer hours can count as 30 daytime hours. The same time cannot count as both triple credit and night driving.

Use each lesson to identify a skill you can reinforce during supervised practice. Keep your records accurate and ask about any requirements that differ for your circumstances.

Check logbook rules →
03

Prepare for the assessment

Pass the hazard perception test before booking your practical test. Have your logbook approved where required, check eligibility and confirm the car and centre. A mock driving test gives you feedback on observations, positioning and decisions without promising a particular result.

Need parallel parking or roundabout practice? Tell your instructor what needs work so the preparation has a clear purpose.
