LMV
Light Motor Vehicle
Trained & tested29 hours over 4 weeks, then the test on this track. Concludes in Form 5B, which exempts the holder from the test at the RTO.
Division III
The driving-skill test, conducted on our own track
An accredited centre does not send a candidate to the RTO for the driving test. It conducts the test itself — on a circuit built to the specification Rules 31B to 31J fix, with the run recorded as it happens.
The centres are registered as Safe Road Training and Testing Center — both words, because both happen here.
What we test
Four classes, one track
Two of them we train as well. Two we test only.

How a run is taken
The same circuit, the same criteria, every candidate
- The circuit
- The figure-of-eight, a gradient, the reverse-S, angular and parallel parking bays, and a straight for controlled braking.
- The control room
- Every corner of the circuit is on camera. The run is scored from here, as it happens, rather than reconstructed afterwards.
- The criteria
- Fixed in advance by Rules 31B to 31J — the same for every candidate, and not set by whoever is standing at the cone.
- The result
- Recorded against the application and sent to the licensing authority, which is what acts on it.
Where the licence comes from
We conduct the test and record the result against your application. The licence itself is issued by the licensing authority, typically 7 to 15 working days later.

Booking a test, or a batch of them?
Tell us the class and the centre and we will come back with the dates the track is free. Fleets putting a group of drivers through at once are handled the same way, on dates that suit the depot rather than the counter.
