It's time to build your knowledge of the New Zealand Road Code and prepare for your practical driving test!
Book and pay for all your driver licence tests at your local AA Licensing Agent.
Wait times for driver licence tests have increased since Waka Kotahi NZTA changed the fees, so make sure you prepare well for your driver licence test. If you don't pass, you may need to wait a while to get another slot. If you get a test booking and can't use it, please make sure you cancel.
