Do you mean the DKT (L's Test) or the DART (P's Test)? Either way failing the eyesight test would mean that you wouldn't even get a chance to do the test and would be asked to either where glasses\contacts if prescribed or go to the optometrist and get tested.

I believe thats incorrect.
All that would happen is one of the licensing conditions printed on your license would indicate you would have to wear glasses, and you would have to wear glasses/contacts at all times whilst driving.

Yes that would be true but if you failed and you are not prescribed glasses then you will need to come back nothing time hence failing. There is a tickbox you must tick if you are going to wear contacts or glasses for the eyesight test so if you don't tick them and fail then you will need to do the test latter...

My eyesight test was always after I did the knowledge/driving test... and after I got my green Ps they didn't even bother doing an eyesight test!

For both my L's and P's test I had the eyesight test before, so I guess it depends on the RTA you go to.

EDIT: But you always have to do the eyesight test (At least for L's and Red P's not sure about Green P's). When renewing your licence you also have to do a eyesight test so I don't see why you didn't for your Green P's.

Never did here (Ballina RTA).

They should have done it for green Ps but I guess they just forgot...

I got a few letters wrong in the eye sight test for my L's, but the nice lady at Macquarie said it was fine and she just said to wear glasses / contacts when driving, which is whats on the back of my L's anyway.

AHAHAH me too!!

macquarie is so slack, they dont really care if you can see or not..

i think i got a few letters wrong.. cos she looked a bit funny, but she was like.. "yeh, go get your eyes checked.. *scribble* sit at computer 2 please"

and then for my red Ps, the person forgot to check my eyes cos i was in a frenzy thinking they lost my application form
