Driving lessons Prestons

Lessons on the roads you will be tested on

Prestons is a good teaching suburb because the residential streets and the heavy roads are separated cleanly. The newer estate streets are wide and quiet, which makes them a forgiving place to learn the controls before anything else is added. Then the step up is genuine: Bernera Road and Kurrajong Road carry steady traffic with signalised turns and plenty of give-way decisions, and Camden Valley Way adds multi-lane driving, lane choice and merging at speed. The industrial roads through the suburb bring trucks and wide turning vehicles into the picture, which teaches following distance and space judgement better than a quiet street can. The school zone around Prestons Public School supplies timed speed changes.

Local context

Preparation for the Liverpool Service NSW driving test

Local roads Prestons learners should practise

Prestons learners can practise around Kurrajong Road, Box Road, Dalmeny Drive, Braidwood Drive, Ash Road, Bernera Road, Camden Valley Way and Hoxton Park Road.

Named local hazards to practise around Prestons

Kurrajong Road and Box Road are useful for practising local traffic decisions because learners need to manage intersections, turning vehicles, pedestrians and parked cars.
