I've got my learner license. All I need now is time on the road and some cash for some driving courses.

:cool: How old do you need to be to drive in Australia? I've been driving (as in qualified) for just over 3 years now... ;) And when I turn 21, I'll be able to drive my dad's company car :D

I just didn't pass for ages cos I got nervous taking the test :p Plus it took soooo long, I mean when you failed it was impossible to get a test for another couple of months :rolleyes:

You have to be 15 years and 9 months to get a learners license. With this you can start learning and drive on the road with supervision. I think that you have to be at least 17 to get a provisional license. Thats when you need to pass a test, or pass a series of checkpoints to show you can work a car competently. After that you can drive without any supervision but with some limitations and you need to wait another 3 years before you can get a full license. Hope that answers your question. :D

The government has recently changed the law so it has gotten more complex.
