Driving lessons across Logan, from the established streets of Springwood and Woodridge to the fast-growing estates at Yarrabilba and Flagstone. Automatic or manual, door-to-door, from a school that has been teaching here since 1965.
Logan is one of the biggest and fastest-growing parts of South East Queensland, and it is really two places at once. There are the established suburbs like Springwood, Woodridge, Kingston and the old town of Beenleigh, each with its own busy shopping strips and arterials, and then there are the newer master-planned estates out at Yarrabilba and Flagstone, laid out with wide streets and roundabouts that suit a learner finding their feet.
Because Logan spreads so far, our instructors work close to where you live and teach on the roads you use day to day, from Kingston Road and Beaudesert Road to the busy stretches around the Browns Plains and Loganholme shopping centres. You keep one instructor the whole way, a parent can take care of the booking and follow how it is going, and the aim is a driver who is at ease anywhere in Logan long after the licence comes through.
Established suburbsSpringwood, Woodridge, Kingston and Beenleigh, with everyday arterials like Kingston Road and Beaudesert Road.
Big shopping hubsThe roads around Browns Plains and the Loganholme Hyperdome get busy, good for building confidence in traffic.
New estate roundaboutsYarrabilba and Flagstone are full of wide streets and roundabouts, a calm place to start out.
Two test centresPractical tests run at Logan Central and at Bethania, both booked through Transport and Main Roads.
Metro has taught Queenslanders to drive since 1965, and across Logan that means an instructor who knows the ground, from a first attempt in a quiet Yarrabilba street to test-ready laps near Logan Central. One instructor stays with you, moving at the pace that suits you.
Automatic and manual lessons with instructors based around Logan. Newer drivers usually start in the quieter estate streets before working up to the busier arterials and shopping-centre roads.
Mock tests, car hire and test-day packages, set up around Logan Central or Bethania depending on where you sit the test, so nothing on the day catches you out.
Book a 5 or 10-pack to bring the cost of each lesson down, and where a package allows it, spread the payments out over time.
Plain rates, the same whether you learn automatic or manual, and door-to-door pick-up included on every Logan lesson. Pay online and you are booked in.
A single hour with a local instructor, pick-up included, and no commitment past the one lesson. An easy first step before you book more.
Two longer sessions to give a newer Logan driver a real first stretch behind the wheel before choosing a package.
Five lessons, each a little cheaper, which usually works for someone set on getting all the way to their test.
Ten lessons at the lowest price each, for a Logan learner steadily working through their hours towards test day.
Each price is for that lesson or pack, and a pack always comes in below the same lessons booked separately. See all packages or book online.
Setting up a lesson with a Logan instructor takes four short steps, all online.
Here is the run from a learner permit through to your Ps in Queensland, and where our Logan lessons come in.
Pass the learner theory test and collect your learner permit.
Book a first lesson with a Logan instructor who drives out to you.
Build up your supervised hours, 10 at night. Lessons count as well.
Rehearse under test conditions near your centre and clean up the last habits.
Sit it in the same dual-control car you trained in, with us alongside on the day.
Provisional licence done. Refresher lessons are here if you want them later on.
Queensland builds a proper leg-up into the logbook. Each of the first 10 hours you spend in professional lessons is recorded as three, turning 10 hours into 30. That clears close to a third of the 100 supervised hours before you have done much driving at all.
Your Logan instructor logs every lesson so those hours are counted right. After the first 10 they go in as ordinary hours, and they are usually the most valuable time a learner spends before the test. If a parent is doing the supervising, it also cuts down the string of night drives.
The practical test is booked and run by Transport and Main Roads, not by Metro. In Logan it is held at a couple of centres, so it helps to know where you are headed before the day. Your instructor can take you over the roads near your centre first so it feels familiar.
On Jacaranda Avenue, this is the main Logan test centre, handling the practical for most of the city. Some light-vehicle Saturday testing has been offered here, though availability varies, so check with Transport and Main Roads.
The services that used to run at Beenleigh have moved to the Bethania centre, where practical car testing is also available for the Beenleigh and Waterford side of Logan.
Centres and their hours can change, so confirm what is current and book straight through Transport and Main Roads.

A handful of notes from the learners and parents who have booked with Metro.
Kevin was the best driving instructor I could hope for. I honestly could not have passed my test without him.
Thanks so much. I am so happy to have got this done, thanks to Timothy, who is genuinely one of the best out there.
Really great experience. I drove with Victor, and in two lessons he taught me everything I needed. I passed first try, and I highly recommend him.
Jody was an excellent teacher. Thanks to her guidance I passed my exam on the first try. Very thankful for her and Metro Driving School.
Kevin is caring, patient and a genuinely amazing instructor. After a lot of hard work I built the confidence to pass my test. I recommend him without hesitation.
Victor is the absolute best, and I passed first time. He goes above and beyond and has the patience of a saint. I could not even turn the wheel on my first lesson.
Transport and Main Roads runs the practical test, and around Logan it is held at Logan Central on Jacaranda Avenue, with testing also available at Bethania since the Beenleigh services moved there. You book the test with Transport and Main Roads, and your instructor can drive the roads near your centre with you beforehand.
Yes. Yarrabilba and Flagstone are laid out with wide streets and plenty of roundabouts, which makes them a steady place for a newer driver to build up, and we teach right through them along with the established Logan suburbs.
Yes. The roads around Browns Plains and the Loganholme Hyperdome get busy, and they are a good place to get comfortable with heavier traffic once your control is there. Lessons build up to them at your own pace.
Yes. Free door-to-door pick-up and drop-off comes with every lesson, so we can collect you from home, work, a TAFE campus or school anywhere across Logan and bring you back after.
We teach both at the one price. Automatic is the fastest way to a licence, while manual earns the full unrestricted one. One hour is $93, and the 5 and 10-lesson packs lower what each lesson costs.
In Queensland you record 100 supervised hours, including 10 at night, and pass the hazard perception test before the practical. The first 10 hours of professional lessons each count as three, so they add up to 30 in the logbook.
