Drive information for coaches refreshed

This section is designed to support anyone teaching someone to drive such as parents, whānau or community mentors. It’s a one-stop-shop for lessons, tips and videos.

You’ll find some fantastic new information including:

• How to get a driver licence by navigating the 3 stages of the New Zealand driver licensing system: learner, restricted and full.
• Information for coaches about their responsibilities, where to access resources and choosing the right car to drive in.
• Coaching hints and tips provides an overview of the role and responsibilities of a driving coach as well as useful information on planning a good practice session, where to practise, and how to talk your learner through their practice session.
• Lesson planning guidance covering everything from lessons for learner drivers, to coaching for the restricted and full licence test, to lessons on long-distance driving.
• A video library that can be used to support your teaching, visually demonstrate common mistakes and issues when on the road, and understand what good driver behaviour looks like.
