Learn to Drive

Learning to drive is a process of acquiring the skills and knowledge necessary to operate a motor vehicle safely and effectively on public roads. The process typically involves a combination of classroom instruction or online learning, practical driving lessons, and supervised driving practice.

N

The first step is to obtain a learner’s license which allows the individual to begin practising driving under the supervision of a licensed driver.

N

The next step is to enrol in a driver education program or take lessons from a licensed driving instructor certified with the province. These programs provide classroom instruction on traffic laws, road signs, and safe driving practices, as well as practical lessons on operating a vehicle and navigating different driving conditions. Our learn to driver course is 25 hours online or in the classroom and 10 hours driving.

Learning to drive requires patience, focus, and attention to detail. It’s important to be aware of one’s surroundings, follow traffic laws, and practice defensive driving to avoid accidents and keep the roads safe. With practice and dedication, anyone can learn to drive and enjoy the freedom and independence that comes with it

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you approved by the Province?

Absolutely both our in class and our online courses have the Provinces stamp of approval.

You seem new ?

Yes and no, as COVID caused some problem in the province, some of us that have been with other places for years decided that since a lot of us taught other programs for DLC, why not add what we did for others.

When do you hold courses ?

All of our courses will be on our scheduling page. Generally all our courses are on a loose 6 week rotation.

We have the 25 hour learn to drive and the 6 hour driver improvement course available online anytime,

Can I go driving before completing the in class or the online portion?

We really want student to complete the in class part of the course before hitting the streets, what is learned in class is important concepts that will need to be used on the streets.

Can I fail ?

Our Driver Improvement, 55 Alive and Defensive driving course there is a 6 hour minimum, and those that have not stayed are given the choice to attend another course.

The new drivers course does have tests and quizzes, but we find the prep work we do and the ability to take them twice is more than enough that failing really does not happen, however students have been asked to leave because the instructor team have decided that their attitude and or behavior clearly contrary to the learning experience or they have shown dangerous behavior on the road beyond normal.
