Yes, we provide convenient pickup and drop-off across the City of Melton and surrounding areas. Our automatic driving lessons service Melton, Caroline Springs, Brookfield, Cobblebank, Taylors Hill, Rockbank, Harkness, and many other suburbs. Additional areas may incur an extra travel fee. Contact us to confirm if we service your location.
We accept cash, bank transfer, and digital payments. Payment is required at the time of the lesson unless you've purchased a package upfront. For packages, full payment is expected before commencing lessons. We do not offer payment plans, but packages provide better value than individual lessons.
Lesson packages are valid for 6 months from the date of purchase. Unused lessons after this period will expire. Refunds are available only in exceptional circumstances and must be requested in writing. Once lessons have commenced, packages are non-refundable. Please contact us if you have special circumstances.
Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours before your scheduled lesson. Cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice will incur the full lesson fee. No-shows will be charged the full amount and the lesson will be deducted from your package.
You must bring: (1) Your valid learner permit or overseas licence, (2) Payment for the lesson (unless prepaid), and (3) Your logbook if you're a learner driver. Wear comfortable clothing and closed shoes. Avoid loose footwear like thongs or high heels.
This varies based on your experience and confidence. Most learners require between 10-20 hours of professional instruction before they're ready for their VicRoads drive test. Your instructor will assess your progress and provide honest guidance on your readiness.

This helps you understand what to expect on test day and identify any weak spots before the real test.
