VicRoads Learners

All prospective learners from across the state are now able to sign up and enrol in the new Learner Permit Test Online (LPTO).  

About the LPTO

The Learner Permit Test Online (LPTO) is a 4-6-hour interactive course and assessment that teaches new drivers about the road rules to follow when driving in Victoria and important ways to develop safe driving behaviours. Applicants can self-enrol and complete the course online using any compatible device.

The LPTO is a competency-based course focusing on road safety (including safe systems, vehicles, speed, routes, drink and drug driving, seatbelts, fatigue and distractions) and road rules (including parking, hazardous situations, giving way, road signs, road markings, licence sanctions and sharing the road with others).

The new test includes a mix of theory, interactive videos and visual graphics to reinforce road safety messages. Applicants move through ‘gated’ topics by reading road safety information and answering mini quizzes to check their understanding of the topic before they progress through to the final assessment.  

Outside of COVID-19 restriction periods, learners can still sit the Learner Permit Test in person at their nearest VicRoads Customer Service Centres. Learners requiring interpreter services support will need to attend the test in-person at a Customer Service Centre.
