Driving Lessons Bell Post Hill

Geelong VicRoads, at 180 Fyans Street, South Geelong. It is about 10.3 kilometres south and roughly 17 minutes, and it is the office your driving lessons are built around.

About 10.3 kilometres, or roughly 17 minutes down through North Geelong and across the river. On a 60 minute driving lesson picked up from home that is over half the hour on the round trip.

It makes it better. Stopping and moving off on a gradient without rolling back is a real skill, and having it on your doorstep means you learn it in the first lesson or two rather than meeting it for the first time somewhere it matters.

Yes, and it is genuinely useful early on because the slopes are good practice in themselves. For drive test preparation we would rather meet you at Geelong VicRoads, or run a 90 minute driving lesson, so the run down does not eat your preparation.

Once you are ready for it, yes. Anakie Road carries traffic at speed with wide intersections, so turning across it needs a real gap. It is met with a driving instructor beside you rather than on your own.

On the residential streets, including on the slopes, because parking on a gradient asks something extra of you. Kerbside spaces with cars either side are what makes the manoeuvre feel routine.

The residential slopes first, then Anakie Road and Ballarat Road. Both are wide with fast-moving traffic, so turns are set up well in advance rather than decided late, and they are met one at a time.

Automatic is what most learners book, and driving lessons run in a small dual-control automatic. Manual can be requested on the booking form, subject to whether a manual driving instructor is covering Bell Post Hill at the time.

Two or three driving lessons if you already drive here regularly, since the work is knowing the Geelong VicRoads testing routes. Three to five if Victorian conditions are still new to you.
