Driving Lessons Greensborough

Bundoora VicRoads, at 8 Graduate Road, Bundoora. It is about 4.4 kilometres west of Greensborough, roughly nine minutes, and it is the office your driving lessons are built around.

About 4.4 kilometres, or roughly nine minutes in ordinary traffic heading west. That puts Greensborough inside the ten minute mark, which is a better position than most of the north east.

Yes. Home, work or Greensborough station all work, and at nine minutes from the office travel is easily managed. For drive test preparation we would still suggest meeting at Bundoora VicRoads so the full hour goes on the roads you will be assessed on.

They ask more of you early and it pays off later. Greensborough sits in the Plenty River valley, so holding speed downhill, pulling away on a slope and reading a crest all come in the first few driving lessons rather than being put off. By the time you reach the flatter roads around Bundoora VicRoads that side of the driving is already settled.

The residential streets away from the centre. They are quiet enough to think in, and because they run up and down the valley they teach gradient control from the start without anyone having to go looking for a hill.

It is the busiest part of the suburb and worth learning properly. Grimshaw Street and Main Street bring shopping centre traffic, kerbside parking and people crossing between cars, all in a fairly compact area. Once you have been through it a few times it becomes ordinary, and the judgement it builds is what the drive test looks at.

Yes. Greensborough 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 Greensborough address. For drive test preparation we would still suggest Bundoora VicRoads instead.

They are the step up after the centre. Both carry steadier traffic and both bring turns across it on ground that is rarely level, so you are judging gaps and managing a gradient at the same time. That combination is good preparation for anything the drive test will ask.

On the flatter residential streets first, so the manoeuvre is solid before a slope is added. Parking on a gradient is common here and worth practising on purpose, because meeting it for the first time on test day is a harder way to learn it.

Automatic. Driving lessons in Greensborough are in a small dual-control automatic, and that is also the car you would sit the Bundoora 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 Bundoora 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 roads that rise, fall and bend at the same time. From there we plan how many driving lessons you need before the Bundoora VicRoads drive test.
