Great news

As of 11 October, Service NSW restarting driver testing service across NSW.

In the first instance, they are reaching out to certain customers to rebook driver tests, such as those who require a test for medical reasons to maintain their licence and those who require an aged driver test that has been deferred. Those who previously had a booking when the service was suspended will be contacted following these customers. Your patience is appreciated as we navigate the high demand.

If you do not receive a call to reschedule your test over the coming weeks, please call Service NSW Contact Centre on 13 77 88 or visit a service centre to rebook your test.

You will be required to show proof of a double vaccination or of a negative Covid test result from a sample taken in the previous 3 days to sit your driving test.

Get vaccinated

Dear friends!

The FORMULA driving school team is excited to welcome you and we hope that your health and mood are positive and ready for a successful experience with us. We continue working outside of LGAs of concern. All our driving instructors are fully vaccinated, which means there shouldn’t be any risk involved at our end. We also come equipped with disinfectant kits so that no one can get sick while we’re on the road learning new skills together. What could make this experience better? Scanning our QR code is required.

We are very much looking forward to the day when our population reaches a healthy 70-80% vaccination rate. That way, Service NSW can resume driving tests and provide more opportunities for people who want to get their driving licence! We are at the bottom of the line waiting for some good news to be announced in a few weeks. We will announce them immediately on our website and social media. Due to long hiatus in testing, we also expect an increased demand for driving lessons starting from October-November this year. So please make sure you prebook well ahead with us.

In the future, it is likely that vaccinations will be mandatory for driving schools students. As such we recommend all those who plan learning to drive and taking their driving tests to get vaccinated.

Good luck everyone

Our achievements in 2019

As we get into 2020, we can confidently say that the Formula Driving School team made great achievements in the year that has just ended.

Firstly, a professional instructor joined our team, making a great impact on the positive results that we saw in 2019. With a new member, we were able to not only increase the number of lessons but also expand the collection of services that we provide. That enabled us to serve our customers better, with an improvement in the quality and flexibility of most if not all services provided.

Another remarkable change we had in the previous year was the creation of a separate class reservation website that works in live mode. This has made it easier for our customers to conveniently reserve and pay for their lessons without having to go through the hassle of making calls or writing emails.

The Podium platform, which has proved to be convenient for doing business, was also among the greatest achievements we had in 2019. With Podium in place, we have been able to create a new button on our website which allowed for easier and convenient communication with our prospective customers. Notably, we have received an increasing number of positive reviews regarding our services on various social networks and even on Google, since Podium was launched.

As if those achievements were not enough, we also acquired two amazing additions to our fleet of vehicles – the new Mazda CX-3 MAXX SPORT, 2019 with a manual transmission, and the 2018/2019 TOYOTA PRIUS C-HI-TECH HYBRID.

We can gladly say that we have not and are not planning to change our principles. As such, we still retain our commitment to high-quality cars as well as adopting the newest releases as far as green technology and car safety are concerned.

We have lots of plans for this new year. Our greatest assurance is that we won’t stand still, since comprehensive development is the main thing that allows our driving school to be ranked as one of the best in our wonderful country, Australia.
