Driving lessons
Get the best start behind the wheel
Learning to drive is an exciting time, but it’s also a big responsibility. Our team of highly experienced and accredited driving instructors will guide you to success behind the wheel, setting you up for safe and confident driving.
At RAA, you can train via the log book method, also known as Competency Based Training and Assessment (CBT&A), or we can provide training to prepare you for your Vehicle On Road Test (VORT).
Log book (CBT&A) driving lessons
90 minute lesson
Log book method
- Your instructor will guide you through a variety of driving situations as you learn the skills required to be a safe and confident driver.
- This method breaks your learning-to-drive journey into achievable steps.
- As you successfully complete each of the 30 required tasks, this will be recorded by your instructor.
- Upon successful completion of all these tasks, you'll be issued with a Certificate of Competency.
- You'll then need to work towards completing 75 hours of supervised driving, including 15 hours at night (to be recorded in your log book).
- Then you're ready to get your provisional licence.
It’s important to know
If you change instructors during log book training, your new instructor will need to check you can successfully perform any skills that have already been signed off.

VORT driving lessons
60 or 90 minute lesson
The instructor will prepare you for your VORT (Vehicle on Road Test). The training will prepare you to be able to demonstrate:
5 low-speed manoeuvres
- 3-point turn
- Reverse parallel park
- U-turn
- Angle park
- Moving off from parking on a hill
General driving
- Turning onto busy roads
- Driving along narrow streets
- Turning at traffic lights
- Negotiating roundabouts
A VORT with an examiner takes about 45 minutes and involves general driving and the successful completion of 5 low-speed manoeuvres and the general drive.
It’s important to know
- Your VORT examiner must be different to your driver training instructor.
- Breaking any road rule during a VORT results in an immediate fail.
- Passing a VORT requires a minimum 90% mark. This can be a combination of the 5 low-speed manoeuvres and general driving.
- If you fail you must wait 14 days before attempting another VORT.
- To get your provisional licence you will also need to complete at least 75 hours of supervised driving, including 15 hours at night (to be recorded in your log book).
