CONNIES DRIVING SCHOOL (CDS) is owned and operated by Constance Cohalan.

Connie, husband Ken Cohalan OAM (Member of the Order of Australia) and son Peter Cohalan moved from Queensland to Darwin NT in 1994. Connie and Peter quickly established the same reputation for excellence that they earned in Queensland.

Peter has since left the driver training industry but Connie continues to provide specialised training in the fields of rehabilitation and disabled driver training, and for special needs students.
Connie has been instructing in many facets in the driver training industry for 26 years. Her experience, teaching skills and exceptional patience means that she does not need to advertise in the normal manner.

Connie teamed up with other instructors who share the same ideals of striving for quality & value. John Ziersch (also known as "Zipper") operates Zipper's Driving School under the CDS banner.

Connies Driving School also welcomes instructor Oliver Jackson from Tasmania.
John & Oliver train manual & automatic to the same high standard as Connie.

Connie's Nissan Tiida automatic is equipped with special controls for disabled drivers - e.g. "push-pat" hand-accelerator/brake controls, steering wheel spinner knob, left-foot accelerator pedal - as well as the usual brake & accelerator pedals on the instructor's side.

Connie is also an agent for supply of dual controls.



See the Services & Rates page for more details on services provided.

CDS can supply effective wide-angle mirrors which attach to the wing mirrors as shown - useful for those who have difficulty turning their head while driving.

These are superior to the usual "stick-on" type. They are larger, adjustable, and do not intrude on the existing wing mirror space.
