Driver Tests :

To get a driver licence in Queensland or add another class to your existing licence, you must pass written and practical driving tests.

If you pass the test, your results are valid for 5 years.

If you hold a P1 licence, you also need to pass a hazard perception test before getting your P2 or open licence.

Written Road Rules Knowledge Tests :
You must pass a written road rules (knowledge) test before you can :
** get a learner licence
** get a different class of licence
** or
** apply to transfer certain foreign licences to Queensland.

Preparing for a written test :
The questions in the test come from Your Keys to Driving in Queensland which has information on Queensland road rules, driver licensing requirements and sample test questions.

The class RE or R (motorcycle) knowledge test also includes questions based on information from the Motorcycle Riders’ Guide.

You can also take an online practice test. There are different tests for different licence classes.

Class C (car) general road rules (knowledge) test :
This test has 30 multiple choice questions. To pass you must correctly answer :
** 9 out of 10 questions about giving way
** 18 out of 20 questions about road rules and driver licence requirements.

Class RE or R (motorcycle) knowledge test :
** You need to answer 27 out of 30 multiple choice questions correctly on topics ranging from road rules to risk management and hazard perception.
** You don’t need to take this test if you already have a Queensland class RE licence and are upgrading to a class R licence.

Class LR, MR, HR, HC or MC (heavy vehicle) road rules (knowledge) test :
** You must answer 8 out of 10 multiple choice questions correctly on the road rules for heavy vehicles.

Taking a written test :
In person at a driver licence issuing centre :
You can take all written road rules (knowledge) tests at a transport and motoring customer service centre.

To take a test you must bring :
** a completed, unsigned application form (PDF, 75KB)
** proof of your identity
** the written road rules (knowledge) test fee.

You can take the test once a day, but you must pay the fee for each attempt.

Online-class RE Test :

The motorcycle knowledge test is also available online. You can take this test online if you :
** hold a valid provisional, probationary or open Queensland licence and
** have held a licence of another class (car or heavy vehicle) for at least 1 year in the past 5 years.

You can only take the test once a day, however, a fee is only required when you pass the test.

When you pass the test, you will be given options to pay the test fee. You can pay this fee online using a debit or credit card (MasterCard or Visa). Payments made by credit card will incur a credit card surcharge.

If you pass and pay for the test online you may be able to have the class RE learner automatically added to your licence and a new licence sent to you.

The class RE learner can not be automatically upgraded if :
** you have a laminate licence
** your licence is expired or will expire within 6 weeks from the date you pay your test fee
** you have not had a digital image and digitised signature taken in the last 9 years.

If you want to pay cash, you will need to do this at a driver licensing issuing centre

You must pay for your motorcycle knowledge test and have the class RE learner added to your licence before you can start learning to ride a motorcycle.
