Yea, you calculated it about right. It costs a lot. If i remember right it was 20 hours theory, 15 hours for driving, all the paper work, and then you need to go take a driving test, theory test, night test and ice road test :p
Is Finland the place they were talking about on top gear where its like a 3 day driving school thing to get your license? skidpan et al, etc, etc?
Yes while it is expensive, it is a very good system. Imo there is nothing more important than defensive driving education/hazard perception. I would feel much safer if everyone in Oz took a test like this rather than a multiple choice theory test to prove that they can drive. Drivers in Sydney *shudder*

cost me $10 when i took my test in illinois, and that was for the theory, practical and the photo at the end, i walked in without a driving license, 60mins later after taking the theory and practical i walked out with a drivers license
when was this?
in south illinois now its like $20 for the eye test, the pic is like $15, the driving test it self it like $50
south illinois? i would have thought it would be the same all over illinois...
the only thing i payed for was the picture, eye test and driving test and theory test were all free. maybe they just dont like you? :P
