New South Wales · Driver Knowledge Test
Start with what Transport for NSW gives you for free: the Road User Handbook, the published question list and the official practice test, online or in the NSW Practice Tests app. The online DKT also teaches as you go. If you want extra practice on your phone, we checked the paid NSW apps' prices and free tiers in October 2026.
The book Transport for NSW says prepares you for the DKT. Covers licences, safe driving, sharing the road, giving way, lanes, parking and hazards. Also in Arabic, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Farsi, Korean, Spanish, Thai and Vietnamese.
