Getting your licence on the south side

The south side is a real mix, from the busy, multicultural streets around Sunnybank to quieter pockets in Salisbury, Yeronga and Tarragindi. A lot of first lessons start on those calmer streets before working up to Logan Road, Mains Road and Kessels Road, which all carry plenty of traffic. The roundabouts near Mount Gravatt and the shopping streets around Sunnybank come with time, once your control and confidence are there.

Because our instructors are based on the south side, they can collect you from home, a Griffith University campus or work, and teach on the roads you already drive. The same instructor stays with you from one lesson to the next, and parents are welcome to book and follow along. If lessons take you further afield, our Brisbane driving school covers the whole city.

I had a great experience with all the instructors from Metro Driving School. I found them all to be patient, encouraging, informative and safety conscious. I am quite anxious about driving and they made me feel comfortable on the road and able to navigate my worries.

Tim was a fantastic instructor, always punctual, friendly, extremely knowledgeable and calm. My daughter passed her test first try and that is all thanks to Tim. Couldn't recommend him highly enough.

Saroj was patient and helpful. Although I only had a short pre-test lesson, my instructor knew exactly what to teach me for me to pass my driving test.

Do you pick up from home, work or school?

Yes. Free door-to-door pick-up and drop-off is included, so a lesson can start from home, work, a Griffith University campus, TAFE or school anywhere on the south side.

Yes. Everyone starts on quieter streets, then builds up to the busier arterials like Logan Road and Mains Road, and the roundabouts around Mount Gravatt, at a pace that suits you.
