Driving Lessons Brisbane South locals actually rate

Learning to drive on the southside means Logan Road at peak hour, the Sunnybank backstreets, the school-zone crawl and more roundabouts than you can count. Our Brisbane South instructors live and teach in these suburbs, so you learn on the exact roads you'll drive every day, not some quiet cul-de-sac miles away.

Whether you're starting from scratch in automatic, upgrading to manual, or booking a test-day package, every RAC lesson is in a modern dual-controlled car with a fully accredited instructor who picks you up from your door. And with the Queensland logbook rule, 10 lessons count as 30 of your 100 hours, so you get test-ready faster and pay less doing it.

Can I get a female driving instructor in Brisbane South?

Yes. We have female and male instructors across the southside. Let us know your preference when you book and we'll match you.

Do you teach both automatic and manual?

We do. You can learn in an automatic, learn manual from scratch, or upgrade an automatic licence to manual. Same lesson price either way.

How does the driving test work?

Book a test-day package and we'll pick you up, run a warm-up lesson on the local route, and hand you our dual-controlled car for the official test so it all feels familiar. Prefer a practice run first? Book a mock test.

How do the logbook hours work?

In Queensland, one hour with an accredited instructor counts as three in your logbook, up to 10 lessons. So 10 lessons give you 30 of your 100 required hours, and you get test-ready faster.

Your guide to driving Lessons in Brisbane South

RAC School of Motoring has helped thousands of southside learners go from their first nervous lap around the block to a full licence. Our instructors know Brisbane South because they drive it every day, the school runs, the shopping-centre car parks, the Logan Road lights and every roundabout in between. Here's how it all works across the southside.

Where to start on the southside

Most Brisbane South learners begin with a few lessons to nail the basics, then move onto a package to get test-ready. Every lesson is in a modern dual-controlled car with a fully accredited instructor who picks you up from home.

Automatic driving lessons in Brisbane South

Two pedals, no clutch, less to think about. Automatic is where most southside learners start, and the quickest way to feel confident in Brisbane traffic.

Manual driving lessons in Brisbane South

After a full manual licence, or upgrading from an automatic one? Our Brisbane South instructors teach manual from scratch, at the same lesson price as automatic.

Getting test-ready in Brisbane South

When you're close, we switch to test prep: the exact roads, roundabouts and hill starts the examiner uses around the southside, so nothing on the day catches you out.

Booking your driving test

You book the official practical test through Transport and Main Roads, then let us get you ready and sort the car.

The RAC test-day package

Our test-day package includes a warm-up lesson right before your test plus use of our dual-controlled car, so you sit the test in a car you already know inside out.

What to bring on test day

Your learner licence, any glasses or contacts you wear to drive, comfy shoes, and a calm head. We'll handle the rest.

The best value on the southside

Log your hours faster (10 lessons count as 30 in your Queensland logbook) and pay less per lesson on a 10-pack. Ready to start? Book a lesson, compare packages, or call the team on (07) 3123 5412.
