Gladesville's local automatic driving school

Driver's ED is based in Gladesville, so this is where most of our lessons start. Because your instructor isn't travelling in from across Sydney, you get more of your lesson behind the wheel and it's easier to find a time that suits you, 7 days a week from 7am to 9pm.

Gladesville is a good place to learn in stages. First lessons stay on quieter residential streets between Victoria Road and the river, where you can practise moving off, steering, give-way rules and parking without heavy traffic. As your confidence grows, lessons move onto Victoria Road, Pittwater Road and the approach to Gladesville Bridge, where you'll practise merging, lane changes and reading busier traffic.

For most Gladesville learners, the nearest Service NSW centre offering driving tests is the Ryde Service Centre at Macquarie Centre, North Ryde. Your later lessons include the kind of roads and manoeuvres you're likely to meet on your test, so the day itself feels familiar.

Every lesson is in a dual-control automatic car, your logbook is signed after each one, and lessons are available in English, Hindi and Punjabi.
