  • What areas do you service?

    Primera Driving School Darwin provides driving lessons and expert advice in Darwin and the surrounding areas, including Larrakeyah and The Gardens. Contact us to confirm if we service your specific location.

  • What is the minimum age to start driving lessons in the Northern Territory?

    In the Northern Territory, you can start taking driving lessons as soon as you turn 16 years old. This is the minimum age at which you are eligible to apply for a learner's permit, which is required to legally drive on public roads under supervision. Starting your driving lessons at 16 gives you a head start in accumulating the necessary experience and developing the skills needed to become a confident and competent driver before you progress to a provisional licence.

  • Do I need a learner's permit before taking driving lessons?

    Yes, obtaining a learner's permit is a mandatory requirement before you can begin taking driving lessons in the Northern Territory. The learner's permit demonstrates that you have a foundational understanding of the road rules and basic driving principles, allowing you to practise driving under the supervision of a qualified instructor or a licensed driver. This permit ensures that you are prepared for the practical aspects of learning to drive.

  • How do I apply for a learner's permit in the Northern Territory?

    To apply for a learner's permit in the Northern Territory, you need to visit a Motor Vehicle Registry (MVR) office in person. The process involves passing a written road rules test which assesses your knowledge of traffic laws, road signs and safe driving practices. In addition to the written test, you will also undergo a vision test to ensure that you meet the minimum eyesight requirements for driving. Once you successfully pass both tests, you will be issued a learner's permit which is valid for 12 months and can be renewed if necessary.
