How Is The NSW Driving Test Scored

How is Your Driving Test Scored | LTrent Driving School

In NSW, your Driving Test is evaluated based on your proficiency in demonstrating low-risk driving skills across varied scenarios. To pass, you must adhere to the driving standard and complete test activities within the specified time. The testing officer assesses your safety while driving, your interactions with other road users, and your compliance with road rules and road markings.

Before taking the Driving Test, you’re required to complete a Hazard Perception Test (HPT), paving the way to earn your driver’s licence. Successfully passing the Driving Test and the HPT earns you a provisional P1 licence, allowing you to drive without a supervising driver or a log book. Partnering with a professional trainer can significantly ease the process of passing your Driving Test.
