Commonly Asked Questions

What will my first lesson be like?

You will be picked up from the arranged location and spend some time talking about your previous driving experience, your strengths, any challenges you may have, and how you learn best. You’ll have the opportunity to familiarise yourself with the car and get comfortable behind the wheel. From there, a training program will be tailored to suit your individual needs, learning style and confidence level.

What experience do you have with nervous or neurodivergent learners?

Angie brings a calm, patient and understanding approach to every lesson, along with extensive experience supporting teens with focus and regulation challenges, anxiety and neurodiversity. Through hundreds of hours of experience observing and applying a range of therapeutic strategies, Angie understands that everyone learns differently. She focuses on creating a supportive environment where learners feel comfortable, understood and able to build confidence.

How many lessons do I need?

This is a personal decision. Each individual learns at different speeds. It is recommended that you practice as much as you can manage outside of lessons in order to build your skills and confidence.   

What should I bring?

Bring your Learners permit, a bottle of water, ensure you're wearing fitted shoes (no thongs, heels or crocs etc).

How much are lessons?

$110 per hour.  

How do I get my P's?

When you have developed the skills to be a confident and competent driver, you can book with an accredited VORT examiner of your choice to undertake the Vehicle On Road Test. Beeline Driving Tuition does not offer this service, but we have Examiners we can recommend. 

Your practiced skills and knowledge will be tested and you will need to demonstrate 5 low speed manoeuvres (move off on a hill, angle park, U-turn, 3-point turn and reverse parallel park) as well as a general drive. The general drive component will test your driving skills - eg changing lanes, turning on and from busy roads, turning at traffic lights, negotiating roundabouts, stop and give-way signs, your interaction with other road users and the system of car control. You must be able to complete all 5 maneouvres competently, and get a pass mark of 90% for the general drive. Any breach of road law will result in an immediate fail and the test will be terminated. If you pass all of that, you will get a Certificate of Competency to take to Service SA.

What are the Terms and Conditions?

Cancellations less than 24 hours from the time of the lesson are generally not refundable, but can be negotiated. Cancellations with more than 24 hours notice can be either rescheduled or refunded, minus processing fees. 

To keep the car comfortable and pleasant for everyone, we ask that smokers and vapers please ensure there is no noticeable smell of smoke or vaping when arriving for your lesson. Smoke and vape odours can linger in the car, which requires specialised cleaning and may be uncomfortable for following students.  Angie also has some fragrance sensitivities, so please avoid wearing strong perfumes, colognes or heavily scented products before your lesson.

Please let us know about anything that may affect how you learn, concentrate, feel or respond while driving. This might include medications (including changes to medication), previous road trauma or accidents, anxiety around driving, or anything else you feel would be helpful for us to understand. You don't need to share anything you're uncomfortable discussing. However, having the right information helps Angie plan lessons appropriately, understand your needs and provide the safest and most supportive learning environment possible.

Am I being recorded when driving?

Yes. Booking a lesson is confirming your consent to being recorded by the in-cab dash cam. Lessons are recorded for safety, transparency and accountability. Images captured will never be publically shared, but may be provided to DPTI, SAPol or an insurance agency in the case of an incident.  

Why does the Book Now Button take me to a different website?

Beeline Driving Tuition uses Complete Driving Solutions software and administration support services to manage bookings. This way Angie can spend more time teaching and less time doing paperwork! But if you have any queries, please get in contact with us directly. We are always happy to help.
