Driving Lessons Keilor Park

Coolaroo VicRoads, at 12/1530 Pascoe Vale Road, Coolaroo. It is about 11.9 kilometres north east of Keilor Park and it is the office your driving lessons are built around.

No. The VicRoads office at Essendon Fields is close to Keilor Park and it does not conduct drive tests. It stays open for other business, so it is useful for plenty of things, just not this one. Your drive test happens at Coolaroo VicRoads.

About 11.9 kilometres, or roughly 15 minutes in ordinary traffic heading north east. Keilor Park is compact, so where you start inside it barely changes that.

Yes, for ordinary driving lessons, and plenty of people here are collected from work on the estate instead. For drive test preparation we would suggest meeting at Coolaroo VicRoads, or booking a 90 minute driving lesson.

It is a real feature of the suburb and it turns into an advantage. The industrial estate means heavy vehicles on local roads through the day, so you learn early to stay out of their blind spots, leave them room to turn and not get crowded at intersections. Most learners meet that for the first time after they have passed.

The residential streets away from the estate roads, and at the times of day when the estate is quieter. Ordinary suburban streets with parked cars along the kerb, and we pick the hour as carefully as the street.

It is the road that defines the suburb and the natural step up. It carries the estate traffic, so you are sharing lanes with heavy vehicles and judging gaps that account for how long a truck takes to stop. Demanding, and very good preparation.

Only at the start. We keep first driving lessons out of it, because sharing a lane with a truck is not a first hour skill. After that we use it on purpose, because it teaches something most suburbs cannot.

On the residential streets where cars are parked along the kerb in a normal line. The estate roads have plenty of space and none of the judgement the drive test asks for, so we use the housing side of the suburb for that.

Automatic. Driving lessons in Keilor Park are in a small dual-control automatic, and that is also the car you would sit the Coolaroo 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 Coolaroo 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 sharing local roads with a lot of heavy traffic. From there we plan how many driving lessons you need before the Coolaroo VicRoads drive test.
