Licensing and Testing Procedures
Getting your Learner licence requires passing a test on the NZ road code. You need to be 16 or older to take the test on a computer at an AA Centre.
Learners undergo 3 stages to get a full licence. First, pass a theory test to get a learner licence. Then, practice driving to pass a road test.
Preparation is key to passing the TExES ESL Supplemental (154) test. Take a practice test to see which areas need more studying. To prepare for ESL placement tests, brush up on grammar and take an ESL course. The English placement test checks reading, writing, and listening.
