If you are under 25, you need to complete a minimum of 120 driving hours with a supervisor or driving instructor. At least 20 of those hours must be night driving (between sunset and sunrise). Completing the Safer Driver Course and 3 for 1 bonus hours with a driving instructor can help you achieve these hours faster.

There are 2 ways to record your hours, either with a paper log book given to you by Service NSW when you get your learners licence or with the digital log book app accepted by Service NSW, Roundtrip.

When you are 25 years old or older, you do not have to log or complete a minimum amount of hours. We do still however recommend that you do a lot of supervised driving to improve your driving and road knowledge before your test.
