On-road practice – observation drive, skill refinement training and test preparation at a driving school

Once learners have completed at least 1.000 km of on-road practice, they will be taken on an observation drive (one session) by an instructor together with their supervisor.

The driving school will provide confirmation of completion of the observation drive.

Caution

In general, these rules also apply to EU citizens in Austria.

The final part of the training will consist of skill refinement training and test preparation at a driving school.

  • Skill refinement training (four sessions)
    including one motorway driving session
  • Test preparation (one session)

The driving school will provide confirmation of completion of this training.

Detailed information about applying for a driving test can also be found at oesterreich.gv.at.
