Right off the bat, you’ll be heading onto Southport Burleigh Road, a major arterial route that can get pretty busy at peak times. Multiple lanes, frequent traffic lights, and merging traffic are a great chance to demonstrate your ability to maintain lane discipline and adjust to varying traffic speeds. Before long, you’ll need to turn right onto Cottesloe Drive so be prepared to check your mirrors and indicate with plenty of time.
Cottesloe Drive is a quieter suburban road, but it still has its challenges. There’s a roundabout early on, which is a great spot to practise decision-making. Remember to give way to the right and enter smoothly without hesitating. The road is fairly straight, but always watch for cyclists and parked cars that may require you to adjust your position. You’ll eventually reach Oceanic Drive, where you’ll take the first exit at another roundabout.
You’ll have a short drive before making a right onto Sunshine Boulevard. This section runs alongside the canal, so there's the chance of local traffic and potentially pedestrians crossing. Sunshine Boulevard itself is a key connection road, meaning a steady flow of vehicles at most times. As always you'll need to stay alert as it transitions into Pacific Avenue, where you’ll soon be making a right onto Avalon Parade.
As you near the end of the route, you’ll be turning right onto Santa Maria Court and facing one final roundabout. Stay calm, and perform one last smooth manoeuvre before finishing. Since this area is close to the Service Centre, watch for other learner drivers who may also be completing their tests. Take your time, check your surroundings, and finish confidently!
