Driving Tests General Info:
Learners have to go through 3 stages in order to get a full car driving licence in New Zealand.
Passing a theory test(the NZ learner licence road code test) to enter stage 1, and learners will be issued with a learner licence, from there learners can start to practise for road driving test.
Passing the 1st practical road driving test, learners will enter stage 2 with a restricted driving licence.
