Driving Lessons Glen Huntly

Heatherton VicRoads, at 77 Corporate Drive, Heatherton. It is about 11 kilometres south east of Glen Huntly, roughly 21 minutes, and it is the office your driving lessons are built around.

About 11 kilometres, or roughly 21 minutes in ordinary traffic heading south east. That puts Glen Huntly well outside the ten minute mark, which is what shapes our advice on where a driving lesson should start.

Yes, for ordinary driving lessons. Home, work or Glenhuntly station all work. For drive test preparation we would suggest meeting at Heatherton VicRoads instead, or booking a 90 minute driving lesson, because at 21 minutes each way the travel takes most of a 60 minute booking.

It did, and it is worth knowing if you learned to drive around here before the works. The Neerim Road and Glen Huntly Road crossings are gone and the railway runs below the road in a trench, so traffic now flows through those intersections instead of banking up at boom gates. It is easier driving overall, and it means the gaps you are judging arrive faster than they once did.

Yes, once you are ready for it, and it is one of the more useful roads around here to learn on. The 67 tram runs along it, cars pull in and out of kerbside parking outside the shops and people cross between them. Once you have been shown where to position the car it stops being complicated, and doing that with a driving instructor beside you beats working it out alone after the test.

The residential streets either side of the railway, on the blocks off Booran Road and Grange Road. Local traffic only, with enough parked cars to start building judgement of space without putting you anywhere busy on day one.

They are the middle step. Both carry the north to south traffic through Glen Huntly and bring turns across it, so they are where you start making real decisions in traffic before taking on the shopping strip.

Yes. The station is a common meeting point for driving lessons, along with home and work. It suits anyone travelling in for a driving lesson rather than starting from a Glen Huntly address. For drive test preparation we would still suggest Heatherton VicRoads instead.

On the residential streets off Booran Road and Grange Road, where the gaps are real and the traffic is local. Once that is solid, the kerbside parking along the shopping strip is the harder version and worth doing before test day.

Automatic. Driving lessons in Glen Huntly are in a small dual-control automatic, and that is also the car you would sit the Heatherton VicRoads drive test in if your package includes it. An automatic licence covers you for automatic cars, which is what most people in Melbourne drive now. If you specifically need manual, tell us when you book and we will give you an honest answer on whether we can cover it.

The same as everywhere else we teach. A 60 minute driving lesson booked as a package of three works out at $225, and packages that include the Heatherton VicRoads drive test start at $224. The full list is further down this page. The price does not change for weekends, public holidays, early mornings or evenings, which is worth checking when you compare quotes.

With one driving lesson so your driving instructor can see where you are. Experienced overseas drivers usually need fewer driving lessons than they expect, and the gap is rarely car control. It is Victorian road rules, and around here it is trams and shopping strip traffic. From there we plan how many driving lessons you need before the Heatherton VicRoads drive test.
