If you’re under 25 and learning to drive, you must record your driving experience in a log book.
Note: If you are 25 years or older, you are not required to log your driving hours.
How to record your driving experience
You can choose to use a paper log book or a log book app.
The free log book apps help you record and update your driving progress. They calculate your 120 driving hours and ensure you have completed 20 learning goals.
Log book apps
Roundtrip is now the only official app accepted by Transport for NSW.
