STEP 6 Book and pass a Practical Driving Assessment (PDA)

The Practical Driving Assessment (PDA) is the driving test that satisfies us that you can ride safely and are ready to ride without supervision on your provisional licence.

To take your PDA for your moped licence you must:

be at least 16 years old
passed the motorcycle hazard perception test
feel confident that you can ride safely without a supervisor.

Book your PDA

You can book your practical driving test:

online via DoTDirect for all metropolitan DTMI service centres and most regional agency sites. You will need to create a DoTDirect account to book online.
in person at a regional DTMI service centre or agent. In person bookings cannot be made at metropolitan service centres.

Book a PDA on DoTDirect

If you don’t feel ready to take your PDA, you can cancel or reschedule as many times as you like. This can be done 24 hours a day via DoTDirect or by calling 13 11 56 between 7:00 am and 5:30 pm, Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays). Remember, you need to give at least 48 hours’ notice otherwise you will be charged for a new PDA. This includes weekends and public holidays where DoTDirect can be used.

On the day of your test

To be eligible to take your driving test you must:

arrive at least 15 minutes before your booked appointment
bring your learner’s permit
provide a licensed roadworthy vehicle in the correct class
wear approved safety gear - helmet, enclosed footwear, long pants (tracksuit pants are not acceptable) and a long sleeved shirt or jacket. Gloves and eye protection are also recommended.

If you pass the PDA, you will be issued with a provisional licence.

If you do not pass, you will need to book another test and pay a resit fee for each test.
