Learner drivers can now test from home in NSW

AutoExec Summary

The New South Wales Government announced that new drivers can now take the Driver Knowledge Test (DKT) online from home before applying for a learner driver licence. Those aged 15 years and 11 months or older can take the test online, with the option to take it in-person at a Service NSW Centre still available. Until now, the only way to complete the test was at a Service NSW Centre, which caused resource strains and longer wait times. Initially available in English and Simplified Chinese, the online test aims to offer better accessibility, especially for remote areas and individuals with low literacy. This follows similar initiatives in other Australian states and a successful six-week pilot program.
