Horsham Driving School

Safety

Greater skills are gained over time and with experience. Horsham Driving School’s part in the education of young motorists is to give you the necessary skills first off, to make you safer, with a real desire to increase your driving skills.

We teach students to drive according to road, weather and traffic conditions. As a good driver always knows their limitations, this helps doubtful situations becoming emergency situations.

Knowledge

While knowing what to do when driving under normal conditions, it’s when something unusual crops up that the extra knowledge you have may save the day.
We impart our know-how to all students, giving you the best chance to be proud of what you’ve achieved when ultimately passing the licence test.

Responsibility

When showing our students that you not only share the road with others, you should also bear in mind that you have a great responsibility for some pretty valuable cargo: passengers and yourself, as well as other road users and pedestrians alike.

A driver licence is not a right: it’s a privilege. The wine glass says “BE AWARE!! Drinking and Driving is a BAD mix.” Never a truer word has been spoken.

  • Responsibility

Confidence

It’s not easy driving a motor car. Many students have found that they can lack a certain degree of confidence when first taking on driving lessons, and even going for their licence test.

With a fully qualified and competent instructor, each student becomes more able to take on training that will put them at ease behind the wheel and better able to look towards the challenge of a driving test in a positive light, while maintaining the proper level of confidence. It’s the edge you get at Horsham Driving School.

  • Confidence

Beat Seat Driving

As you guessed, back seat drivers are a real pain. As an inexperienced young driver, listening to passenger’s comments on how to do this and that, and being abused for not seeing that all important parking spot, is something that even the most experienced motorist shouldn’t have to put up with.

This is where Horsham Driving School comes to the fore: forget the back seat drivers and move forward. Put yourself in charge with better driver education, lessons and training given in a professional and friendly way.

Applying for your Learner Permit is the first step to getting your licence

Get started

To be at least 16 years of age for a car;

    • To pass an eyesight test, and
    • A multiple choice theory test on road law which is computer based.

A Learner Permit is valid for 10 years or until you obtain a Driver Licence.
As of 1 July 2007, the following restrictions to your Learner Permit also apply:

  • If you are under the age of 21, you will be required to undertake a minimum of 120 hours (including at least 20 hours night driving) of supervised driving before you can take your licence test. You must record these hours in the official learner log book, which must be signed by you and your supervising driver.
  • If you are under 21 years of age, you must hold your Learner Permit for at least twelve months.
  • If you are 21 years of age or over but under 25 years of age, you must hold your Learner Permit for at least six months.
  • If you are 25 years of age or over, you must hold your Learner Permit for at least 3 months.

Why the GLS is being introduced.

The facts are simple:

  • Each year approximately 120 people are killed and 2,300 more are seriously injured in accidents involving 18 to 25 year old drivers. This is about one third of the Victorian road toll.
  • Probationary drivers are involved in three times more casualty crashes than experienced drivers.
  • More young people die from road crashes than any other cause.
  • Young driver road crashes are caused by many factors, including inexperience, drink driving, driving in high risk situations (such as late at night or carrying multiple passengers), using mobile phones, and speeding.
    Once you have held your Probationary Licence for the appropriate amount of time, you will progress to a full Licence without the need to do any further tests. (Call Vicroads on 131171 for further details.)
