VicRoads Drive Test : Things to learn to improve your chances of passing the test

StickyNote · May 2014

I am sharing the VicRoads Drive Test Criteria that I was able to read before taking my test which might also be of help to those who are going to take their tests in the near future. Malaki ang naitulong nito sa akin. Marami din kasi sa atin na marunong ng mag-drive sa Pilipinas bago pumunta dito at iniisip na hindi na kumuha pa ng driving instructor. Kung kaya natin mag-drive dun sa Pilipinas, mas kaya nating mag-drive dito dahil disiplinado ang mga drivers dito (although hindi din lahat). Ang madalas na nangyayari lang ay nagiging over-confident at hindi na nagagawa ang mga bagay na kailangan o kaya naman natatalo ng kaba kapag nasa actual driving test na.

Ito po ang Drive Test Criteria, na kailangang alam natin para aware tayo kung ano ang ina-assess ng Licence Testing Officer (LTO) during the test.

Check your State's rule, pero in general you are allowed to use your Phil driver's license upto 2 months from initial entry date. But I highly suggest (kung pwede lang 'it is a must') to read and understand road rules in Australia and to hire a driving instructor for maybe 2 or 3 lessons to get you familiarized with the road.

unfortunately you cant convert Phil license to AU license. you can get a license via 2 ways

1. one off test or
2. log book
