Mock Driving Tests for Parramatta Learners
A mock test is one of the best ways to prepare before your real driving test.
During a mock driving test, we assess your driving in a similar style to the real test. We check your observation, road positioning, speed control, decision-making, parking, manoeuvres and ability to follow directions.
After the mock test, we explain what needs improvement and help you practise those areas before your actual test.
Common issues we correct before test day include:
- Not checking mirrors before braking
- Missing blind spot checks
- Driving too slowly or too fast
- Not fully stopping at stop signs
- Poor lane positioning
- Late indicators
- Turning too wide
- Poor reverse parking control
- Not scanning at intersections
- Hesitating when it is safe to go
- Not giving way correctly
- Forgetting school zone times
- Following other vehicles too closely
Our mock tests are designed to help you feel more confident, reduce stress and understand what the examiner will be looking for.
