25.01.2022 Kate Oram gave herself a pretty good late birthday present today, with a mature drive for her ps. Its been a pleasure getting you over the line Kate, though your mum and dad deserve a lot of the credit! Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

25.01.2022 We have an accurate update from VicRoads. # Testing will recommence from Mon 15 Jun ONLY for students who had a test booked and postponed due to the covid restrictions. # Students will be contacted individually by VicRoads to rebook appointments.... # Instructors ARE able to be present, and instructor vehicles CAN be used for testing. # PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR INSTRUCTOR BEFORE BOOKING YOUR TEST TIME. # Students who DIDNT have a test booked can still apply under the current hardship provisions which should start to be done in home location rather than Melbourne. No public booking can be made at this time. If you have questions please contact us, we will do everything we can to assist.

25.01.2022 Erica Ganley wasnt on home turf when she went for her drive test today in Morwell, but that wasnt a problem and Erica headed home with the coveted prize. Well done and safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

24.01.2022 Lily Stephenson is one of the fortunate few who was able to sit her drive test today. The Heyfield teen had to drive in Morwell to achieve her goal, but proved herself able to drive safely wherever. Great work Lily, safe travelling from Phil and the team at HELP

24.01.2022 Bec Burge may have put off getting her ps for a while, but thats all forgotten today after winning the prize and getting her sleek first car. Its been a great journey Bec, and a lot of fun. Thanks for choosing us. Safe travelling from Phil and the team at HELP

22.01.2022 Jasmine Ewing has had her licence for years, but after today she can drive a manual. Booked originally on the day of the licence shutdown, its been a wait, but the experience gained showed today with a faultless drive. Great going Jasmine, its another string to your bow! Safe travelling from Phil and the team at HELP

22.01.2022 Emma Swanton has waited a while for her p’s, but when the time finally came, she did it with ease, another student who outperformed her pretest self! Great work Emma, and a great relief for your ‘taxi’ service. It’s been a pleasure to help you, all the best in your chosen career path! Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

21.01.2022 Grace Wrigglesworth has high aspirations in the sporting world, and reached another aspiration today with her test result. Off to a slowish start, Grace quickly got into the swing of it to perform a textbook drive. Great work today Grace, safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

21.01.2022 Tahlia Hill continued the run of students successfully going for their ps with HELP. It seems one positive coming out of these strange times is that students seem better prepared, or maybe its the added motivation of being mobile when told to stay home! Anyway, great drive today Tahlia, you managed those school zones well. Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

21.01.2022 Tristan Bronts picked a great combination for his test today, the manual car and a school zone timeslot. In a disciplined display with not a lot of time in his 120 hours devoted to using a clutch, Tristan mastered the course and can now claim equal bragging rights with his sister! Well done mate, it’s been a pleasure! Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

20.01.2022 Benny Singh works in agriculture, and put his understanding of machinery to the test today for his manual licence. What a great drive Benny, you nailed it! No more relying on lifts! Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

19.01.2022 Thomas Mann didnt just do his manual licence test today, he owned it! This was a little surprising, given how nervous he admitted to being. Loved your work today Thomas, its been a pleasure getting you across the line. Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

17.01.2022 Bailee van Ekeren might have been nervous for his test today, but the hill climbing car enthusiast didnt show it as he went from strength to strength. Great work today Bailee, and safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

17.01.2022 Zara Dowsett had the usual case of nerves for her drive test today, but the only aspect they effected was the reverse park, and she made a great comeback with that under pressure. Great work Zara, enjoy your Fiesta! Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

16.01.2022 Stephen Curry In Isolation

16.01.2022 Tahlia Burrows had the longest wait for her test today. Booked in the day after the shutdown, the confident teen took it all in her stride, and today put in a faultless drive for her ps. Great work Tahlia, its been worth the wait. Thanks for choosing us, safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

16.01.2022 Its a disappointing time for all learners and even would-be learners as VicRoads suspends all testing as of yesterday, and its hard to put a positive spin on this, other than to say there are a LOT of people really hurting out there! HELP wont be going anywhere, literally, although in the VicRoads announcement there is mention of exceptional circumstances. Well keep you informed as to what that might look like, but for now, its time for us to reflect, regroup and keep the conversation going. We wont be sleeping, just honing our skills as we look forward to a restart down the track. If you have any questions at all, please call us. In the meantime, try to keep up your driving practice! Well be in touch, Phil and the team at HELP

16.01.2022 Wed like to thank our many loyal learners and their families for continuing to support us in these difficult times. We are dealing with an unprecedented crisis and it changes daily. HELP Sale is currently looking at the options for safe in-car instruction. Instructor/business owner Phil White is at higher risk due to a long-term respiratory condition, and is doing VicRoads tests and related lessons only at present. We are already using alcohol wipes and are providing hand s...anitizer for each student. One further possibility is face masks for students and instructor, but these are rare at the moment. Once the supply of a suitable mask has been sourced, we will advise our clients. This may take a little time, but could provide the means by which normal lessons can resume. Thanks for your patience, we are doing everything possible to see that students approaching tests are not compromised. Of course, if government restrictions extend to our industry, that would be complied with, but there is no hint of that happening at this stage. If you have ANY questions, please dont hesitate to contact Phil on 0425 803227 or via this FB page. See more

16.01.2022 Connor Lay didnt just pass his manual test today, he aced it! Its not often we see such mature driving in an 18 year old, so your prize was well deserved mate! All the best with your search for the right apprenticeship, and safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

15.01.2022 Adam Larose didnt have the smoothest warmup drive before his test today, but his test was a different story as he refused to let nerves beat him. Good work Adam, its been an interesting journey, hope this is the start of good things for you. Thanks for choosing us, safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

15.01.2022 Josh Brown didnt put a wheel wrong in his drive test today, making sure he nailed what will probably be one of the last tests for 6 weeks! Great driving Josh, and a very interesting manoeuvre in the warmup drive which probably had the effect of settling your nerves. Its been lots of fun, but importantly youve become a mature driver. Safe travelling and all the best with your plans, from Phil and the team at HELP

14.01.2022 Jade Tatlow looked confident as she left VicRoads on her drive test today, and that didn’t change. Great drive Jade, it was worth all those drives from Maffra into Sale. Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

13.01.2022 Hannah Wain put in a pearler of a drive for her p’s today, showing great maturity and an excellent skill set to take home the prize. Loved your work today Hannah, the result never in doubt. Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

13.01.2022 Road Law Misconceptions

13.01.2022 Bella Sheahan is a hard working young lady who has also worked hard at her driving skills. It paid off today with a flawless drive for her ps. Its been a pleasure teaching you Bella. All the best with your plans for the year ahead. Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

13.01.2022 Charlie Courtney was a study in conservative road skills on his manual test today. This young man was never going to be hurried, and left the impression that he never will be! Great work Charlie, its been a pleasure helping you. Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

12.01.2022 Joe Knight drove with great confidence in his manual test yesterday, not letting his nerves get the better of him. Great work Joe, its been a pleasure helping you over the line. Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

12.01.2022 Hannah Chown neednt have worried about her test result today. Though never a certainty, this was in the bag from the get go, as the year 12 student made her way confidently around the test route. Great work today Hannah, it was great working with you! Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

12.01.2022 Bailee Smith did not skip a beat in her test today. She started strongly, and just got better. Heres something positive to remember about 2020 Bailee, in a year when not much is going to plan! Its been fun helping you, safe travelling from Phil and the team at HELP

12.01.2022 Karsha-Rose Russell took todays test in her stride as the teenager put in a solid drive this afternoon. No, it wasnt a racetrack, which Karsha aspires to when racing returns, but it was a road leading to freedom. Good work Karsha, safe driving on the road and the track from Phil and the team at HELP

11.01.2022 Courtney Smith just eased the car around the course in her drive test today, proving again the value of conservative driving. It’s been a pleasure getting you there Courtney, all the best with your future plans, and safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

11.01.2022 Nyssa Aldred could be on the move in more ways than one after a sterling performance in today’s test! Now that she’s mobile, the need to live in walking distance of her workplace has disappeared, so maybe something like a tree change is a possibility! Great work today Nyssa, and safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

11.01.2022 Megan Fitzsimon is a fast learner, doing her first 3 point turn less than an hour before her test, then nailing it in the test! If you learn that fast in the AFLW Megan, we should be seeing a lot of you in the near future. All the best, you’ve been a pleasure to teach. Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

10.01.2022 Tilley Gordons drive for her ps today was another super effort showing great maturity. It wasnt an ideal lead-up with her hazards test booked for the hour before, and grabbing a quick warmup drive. Tilley didnt skip a beat though, and put in a faultless performance. Well done, and safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

10.01.2022 Matt Cook passed the drive test in his own car. Its been a journey, and Corona certainly got in the way, but youve done well Matt. See you on the road. From Phil and the team at HELP

09.01.2022 Katrina Morgan managed to score more traffic in her test today than weve seen for quite a while. Maybe it was the combination of wet weather and being in school zone times, but it really didnt matter, as the year 12 student handled the conditions (including being in a manual car shed only driven once 19 months ago), beautifully. Well done Katrina, safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

09.01.2022 Congrats to Taylah, who was camera shy today, but that doesn’t take anything away from a superb drive for her p’s, which due to circumstances outside her control, have been on hold for a year. Another great test today. All the best for your future plans Taylah, thanks for choosing HELP, safe travels from Phil and the team

08.01.2022 Reghan Perry-Ulph might have been secretive about her manual test today (even mum and dad didn’t know she was doing it), but now she can shout it from the mountain tops. The testing officer said it was the best today, and no he had more than one, seven in fact! All from a girl who had almost convinced herself she was going to fail! Never in doubt Reghan, well done from Phil and the team at HELP . Safe driving

08.01.2022 Annie Bass had to do some hard yards just to book her manual VicRoads test today. She probably found the test itself easier, with light traffic prevailing. A great drive nonetheless Annie, in a car youd spent little time in. Well done, and safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

06.01.2022 Junior Bradshaw seems like a pretty laid back guy, but he was geared up for his test today, and handled it with apparent ease. Great work today Junior, youve had some great supervisors along the way! Thanks for using HELP, safe driving from Phil and the team

06.01.2022 King Wong just needed some finishing touches to convert from his international to Victorian licence today. Great going King, now you can really be king of the road! Its been fun getting you across the line. Safe travelling from Phil and the team at HELP

06.01.2022 Want a free lesson for you or a friend once restrictions are lifted? Like our PAGE & TAG a friend. Done!

05.01.2022 Kobi Hirst is a guy who drives like hes always been a good driver. Of course, thats not quite true, as a lot of hours and effort have contributed to where he is today. Todays manual test was taken in his stride. Well done Kobi, and safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

03.01.2022 Sam Berry made light work of his test today. Theres not a lot more we can say about a young guy who drives like hes been driving for a long time. Sorry we only just got the red p in shot, but at least its there! Great work Sam, from Phil and the team at HELP, safe travelling.

03.01.2022 Elise Fleming gets a big thumbs up for executing one of our ‘neatest’ test drives today. Positioning the car with unerring accuracy, Elise would put some more experienced drivers to shame! Loved your work today Elise! Thanks for choosing HELP, and safe driving from Phil and the team

03.01.2022 Brody Adams didnt say a lot in the warmup drive for his manual test today, he let his driving do the talking. What a great drive Brody, what else can we say? Safe driving from Phil and the team at HELP

02.01.2022 Delle Agaton is one of those rare students who saves their best performance for the drive test. Taking gaps (safely!) she would normally have let go, Delle powered her way (gently) to join her brother on the winner’s podium this month. Loved your drive today Delle, it’s been fun helping you over the line. Thanks for choosing us, safe travels from Phil and the team at HELP
