Learning to drive in a smaller town has real advantages: quieter streets to start on, less traffic to manage while you are still getting the basics right, and roads you already know as a passenger. What it usually lacks is instructors who will actually travel to you.
We do. Wellington lessons run at $90 per hour with a minimum booking of two hours, which reflects the travel time from our Dubbo base. Because the sessions are longer, most Wellington students find they progress faster per lesson than students booking single hours.
Every service we offer runs in Wellington, in the same dual-control car you can hire for your test.
The simplest route to a licence for most learners, in a dual-control automatic.

Skills and confidence for driving safely after dark, plus your night logbook hours.
Saturday and Sunday lessons for learners who study or work through the week.
Patient instruction on Australian road rules for students and new arrivals.

Before you book your test, make sure the paperwork side is as ready as your driving.
Learner drivers under 25 must record 120 hours of supervised driving, including 20 hours at night, before they can sit the driving test. Completing the Safer Drivers Course reduces this requirement by 20 hours. Most learners also take 10 to 20 professional lessons alongside their supervised practice.
The test is an on-road assessment with a Service NSW testing officer. You will be asked to demonstrate everyday driving plus set manoeuvres, and the officer marks against fail items that end the test immediately. We work through each of these in your later lessons so nothing on the day is a surprise.
If you pass in an automatic, your licence is restricted to automatic vehicles. In a regional area, where work utes and farm vehicles are often manual, it is worth thinking ahead before you choose. We teach both — tell us early and we will start you in the right car.
Wellington lessons have a minimum booking of two hours, which reflects the travel from our Dubbo base. Longer sessions are not a downside: students generally cover more per lesson than they would in a single hour, because there is time to leave town and practise on the roads that actually come up on test day.
