Australian Capital Territory · Road Rules Knowledge Test · ACT licence rules

How much supervised driving practice must an ACT learner complete before the practical driving test?

The answer

  • A compulsory 100-hour logbook, including 10 hours at night
  • No compulsory hours — 50 hours of practice is recommended before booking the test Correct
  • A compulsory 50-hour logbook for under-25s only
  • A compulsory 120-hour logbook, including 20 hours at night

Why that's the answer

The ACT sets no compulsory logbook hours. The Road Rules Handbook recommends a minimum of 50 hours of driving practice before you book a practical driver assessment. What is compulsory is holding your learner licence for at least six months and being 17 before you sit the test. The 120-hour logbook belongs to NSW, not the ACT.
