Learner Driver Lessons
Pacific Link’s Learner Driver Program is open to tenants of all ages who meet the eligibility criteria. Eleven free lessons can be provided to tenants who are learning to drive through our partnership with the NRMA Safer Driving School. The program teaches essential road safety skills and builds the confidence of learner drivers to help them get on the road sooner!
“The professional driving lessons were so helpful to me and the money I saved went towards buying a used car. I have more work opportunities now because I don’t have to rely on buses and trains to get there.”
