FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions.

Do I need my learners licence before I'm allowed to drive?

Yes. You will have to pass a theoretical test before you are issued a learners. The AA offers these tests.

 

How many lessons do I need before I can go for my restricted?

I recommend a minimum of 5 lessons with a driving instructor, but you will need at least 40 hours on the road to get confident.

 

How long do I need to stay on my restricted before I can get my full?

If you are under 25 the minimum period is 18 months, otherwise it is 6 months.

You can shorten the minimum period with 6 months if you pass a LTNZ endorsed StreetTalk course. We offer this course on a monthly basis.

 

If I do a StreetTalk course can I go for my full sooner?

Yes, if you are under 25 the you can sit your full after 12 months (normal 18 months) and if your over 25 you can get your full after 3 months in stead of 6 months.

When can I do the StreetTalk course?

You can do the StreetTalk course after 10 months and with the certificate you can book your test within 60 days after passing the course.

StreetTalk course starts every month.

I am very nervous, is that a problem?

No, that is not a problem at all. We have a lot of experience with nervous and insecure drivers. Our methods are aimed to make you feel comfortable and gain confidence while being supported by our experienced instructor.
