To get you started...
-
Don't Speed -
You must drive 5 km/h under the speed limit and observe every
single speed sign. Missing 1 sign could result in an Instant
Fail!
- At
Stop Signs, stop completely for 1 full second -
You'll be surprised how many people don't do this. So ask
yourself... if it's really that simple, why don't people do
it? We'll tell you what catches people out and teach you a
simple solution to ensure you don't embarrass yourself too.
-
Look at your mirrors -
When you brake or turn, look at your rear-view mirror. When
you drive straight, look at a mirror (alternate between all
3) at least once every 15 seconds. During your Practice Test,
we'll tell you which Stage of the test Vicroads are most picky
about this.

- Do
the lateral sequence - When you move laterally you
must do the lateral sequence. Your Vicroads tester will expect
you to do it in numerous situations; changing lanes, merging,
leaving or returning to the kerb etc...
- Know
when to give way
- Your road law knowledge must be 100% up-to-scratch to ensure
you give way correctly to cars, bikes and pedestrians. Don't
just give way to everything, everywhere. You can also fail
for being overly cautious! Either spend 1 week reading up
on road law or spend just 1 lesson with SmileDrive and you'll
learn it the fast, easy and fun way!
