Test route: VTNZ New Lynn -> Portage Rd(turn left) -> Hill Cres(turn right) -> Astley Avenue(turn left - stop sign) -> Roundabout(go straight) -> Gardner Avenue(turn right) -> Hutchinson Avenue(turn right - stop sign) -> Islington Avenue(turn right) -> Astley Avenue(turn right - stop sign) -> Cutler Street(turn left) -> Turn around at the end of the street -> Astley Avenue(turn right - stop sign) -> Roundabout(turn right to Links Rd) -> Portage Rd(turn left - stop sign) -> Clark Street(turn right - middle lane) -> Taylor Street(turn right) -> Busby Street(turn right at roundabout; 30kmph zone) -> Crowther Street(turn right) -> Wolverton Street(turn left - stop sign) -> Portage Rd(turn left) -> McWhirther Place(turn left) -> VTNZ New Lynn Please note that this is the route I had to take. Route may change in future. Also, be extremely mindful on reduced speed limits, including temporary ones. Do not drive beyond the speed limit because of the vehicles behind you. If you go beyond 35kmph in a 30 zone for 5 seconds, technically you are speeding, which is an immediate failure as I can remember. So don't get pressured into breaking speed limits. Good luck! 🙂

Hello there, :)) how long did you have to wait to book the appointment? I've heard people is waiting for months, did you take a supervisor with you to do the test? Cheers and thanks so much for sharing.

Hey :) My initial booking was about 3 to 4 months in advance. However I constantly checked and then could change it to like few weeks ahead. Initially I was focusing on one test center but had to look for other places as well. Drove 1h in the morning for 8am test but they had postponed it :D So I checked then and there and got a slot at New Lynn the same day at 11am. Try around 6-10 in the morning to change your appointment, you might get lucky. People who can’t make their sessions tend to cancel/reschedule their slots around this time. But don’t wait for an ideal time to book. First book the best option you have and check to reschedule for better times, else you will wait forever. I took someone with me just in case but they didn’t even ask whether I came with a supervisor. Good luck :)

Hey mate! Did you bring some documents or just your local driver licence and your passport? Thanks!

Hey. By the time you face the practical test, you should have a NZ license with you. Since I did the theory test before and passed, they sent me a NZ full drivers license with a supervisor condition. I had to take that license with me, not the license from my home country. And since a Nz drivers license(even with a supervisor condition) is accepted as a valid photo ID(unless it’s a paper license), I don’t think you have to bring passport at all. But best to bring the passport as well to be on the safe side, since you don’t need an extra thing to worry about on the day of your test. 🙂

Hi there, just wondering if you needed to reverse parallel park between two cars? Also will they do a complete check of your car before the test I.e checking tyres. Thanks!

Hey. There were no parallel park or three point turn in my overseas license conversion test. They are usually included in the restricted license testing, so I don't think anyone who does a full license test(overseas conversion or otherwise) doesn't have to do those. Yeah they check the condition of your car, like correct functioning of your headlights, signal lights, horn, wiper(if it's a rainy day), tire conditions etc. But it's not a very comprehensive check, so don't stress too much. If the vehicle is roadworthy, you should be fine. Also they may ask whether you know how to operate the front and back windscreen demisters(in the AC panel). So, be ready in case they ask. Good luck 🙂

You don’t usually parallel park between two cars, this is not normal, you may need to parallel park behind a single car, this is common.

Sorry for late reply but did you pass your driving test? You did really well❤

Thanks ❤️ Yeah I passed. The examiner’s cool demeanor also helped a lot, since it can be stressful otherwise 🙂

Hi, did he not ask you for hazards?

@Zealandiah

Ай бұрын

Hi. Sorry for the late reply. He didn't ask to describe hazards, probably since I'm doing a full license conversion. If it was from restricted to full, then they would ask. At least that's what I think. But be ready in any case. Good luck :)

at 8:50 are you suppose to indicate?

@Zealandiah

Ай бұрын

If you are talking about the T junction with stop sign, we should signal. But if you are talking about passing a stopped vehicle, then it’s not needed I think. The rule is, indicate if you are moving one car width into either side. Please correct me if Im wrong :)

Can you please tell me the route

I didn't have to go on motorway for my full license either. It really depends on where you take the exam I guess. For New Lynn full exam, you probably don't have to, unless the route is changed now.
