By Advice Driving School – Your trusted driving school in Victoria

Are you preparing for your VicRoads driving test and feeling a little nervous? Don’t worry—Advice Driving School is here to help. With the right preparation, practice, and mindset, you can confidently pass your test on the first attempt.

1. Understand the VicRoads Test Requirements

Before your test, make sure you’re aware of what the VicRoads driving test includes:

  • Pre-drive safety check
  • Basic driving skills (starting, stopping, turning)
  • Hazard perception and response
  • Observation and decision-making

Visit the official VicRoads website or ask your instructor for guidance.

2. Book Lessons with a Qualified Instructor

Professional instructors from Advice Driving School Campbellfield know exactly what examiners look for. We’ll help you build skills and confidence through targeted lessons and mock tests.

3. Know the Test Route

Practicing near your VicRoads test location gives you a big advantage. Familiarity with roundabouts, speed zones, and tricky intersections can help you stay calm on test day.

4. Focus on Observation

Observation is key. Always:

  • Check mirrors frequently
  • Look over your shoulder before lane changes
  • Scan intersections and pedestrian zones

Lack of observation is one of the most common reasons learners fail.

5. Perfect Your Parking

You must be able to:

  • Reverse parallel park
  • Angle park safely
  • Execute a three-point turn

Practice makes perfect!

6. Follow Road Rules Strictly

Stick to speed limits, obey stop signs, and pay attention to school zones. Examiners are watching your road rule awareness closely.

7. Stay Calm and Don’t Rush

Take deep breaths, stay focused, and remember: it’s okay to make a small mistake. One minor error won’t fail you—unless it’s critical. Keep going!

8. Practice Hazard Perception

Train yourself to:

  • Predict the actions of other drivers
  • Spot potential dangers early
  • Adjust your driving safely and responsibly

Hazard awareness shows you’re a safe and alert driver.

9. Use the Right Vehicle

Choose a car you’re comfortable driving. At Advice Driving School, we provide clean, safe, automatic and EV vehicles that are perfect for learners.

10. Take a Mock Test

Mock tests simulate real conditions and help identify weak points. Book one with your instructor before the big day.
