Driving Zone – Melbourne Driving School

Professional Driving Instructors

At Driving Zone, our mission is to create the best, safest drivers in Melbourne and around Port Philip Bay. Driving Zone was founded in 2003. Our male and female instructors have logged over 200,000 lesson hours for learner drivers, leading to over 7,500 driving tests passed. We create safe drivers for life, not just to pass the driving test. So when our graduate drivers are out on the road on their own they are less at risk of collisions.

With over 200,000 learner driver hours logged and growing, we’ve used this experience to create one of Melbourne’s most comprehensive driver training programs. We help learner drivers log sufficient hours, concentrating on safe driving principles and increasing driver awareness. As you’ll see from our reviews, our professional driving instructors deliver a comprehensive program and world-class customer service.

Book online to get your first lesson: Only $49 for 1 Hour.

Our world class instructors and nearly two decades experience mean the team at Driving Zone are not only experienced at ensuring our learner drivers pass their test but also ensuring that they are well skilled to drive to any conditions when they are out on the road without us by their side. We create confident drivers.

Our driving lessons build on each other, with our drivers learning more with each lesson. This means our learner drivers have a strong foundation, both to pass their test and then to be safe on the roads.

Our passionate instructors have the latest vehicles to ensure that learners get the most from every lesson. Our instructors want to create safer drivers so the whole community benefits.

Before we even get in the car with a learner our instructors will discuss the learners goals – overall and for each lesson. This means our instructors can put effort into planning each lesson, tailoring it to a learner’s individual goals. This means the learner driver is more likely to get value for money as they will achieve their goals and be more confident drivers.

Here’s just a few of the ways we make a difference to your learning experience:

• All of our instructors are friendly and patient. You’ll look forward to your stress-free lessons.

• We can offer in-depth analysis of your driving and can help you overcome fears. You’ll be well-prepared for your test because you’ll know exactly how to avoid common mistakes.

• We provide modern, comfortable cars in both manual and automatic transmission.

• Your choice of instructor. This means you’ll be able to learn in a relaxed environment and can focus on the road without distraction.

Very easy to organise times and lessons with them and both very knowledgeable drivers (I learned a lot of things I wouldn't have without their experience and guidance). Passed my test on the first go with mostly just their lessons under my belt, can't thank you enough. I will be recommending Driving Zone to anyone else I know who is in need :)read more

My instructor was David Rakhlin. He was... brilliant. Very easy going and explained every thing in a nice calm manner. Very friendly and all round good bloke. Passed first time because of him! He had extensive knowledge of the driving test routes and that paid crucial to me passing. Would highly recommend.read more

I had a great time driving at driving zone... and am gassed to have passed my test with Jimmy! He helped me get my confidence back. Thanks again Jimmy.read more

What can I say! Driving Zone is one of the... best companies I've ever had the experience of dealing with. Alex was my instructor and I honestly cannot speak highly enough of what an excellent, kind, patient and encouraging teacher he is. Having learnt to drive later in life, I was quite anxious - but my confidence built steadily lesson after lesson. I have learnt so much that I might not have with other driving schools and am so proud that I passed my test on the first go. A heartfelt thank you!read more

The biggest thank you to my instructor David... Rakhlin who helped me get ready for my test and to drive safely. I had had a couple instructors before but David was by far the best and clearest at giving instructions and tips, especially for my parking. My lessons felt relaxed and I could really see myself improve after each lesson. When I went for my test I was feeling confident and passed on my first try. Thanks again David for making this process so smooth and stress-free! :) Would recommend to everyone!read more
