Obtaining your Driver’s Licence
The Ministry of Transportation of Ontario has designed a two-step approach to obtaining your full G licence, in an effort to ensure new drivers are learning all the necessary skills required to be a safe and responsible driver. The graduated licensing system includes three stages: G1, G2, and G. The entire process takes most people about 20-months to complete. Find more information on the process and restrictions involved with each stage below.
Our Training Steps to Success
Interactive Classroom
State-of-the-art interactive classroom to engage and ensure student understanding. Training should be fun!
Experience Dynamic Education

Cutting-edge Driving Simulators
Online Learning
Online Learning Platform
One-on-one In-Vehicle Sessions
No two lessons are alike, ensuring a tailored and focused learning experience that optimizes skill development.
Customized In-Vehicle Training
The Key to Safe and Confident Driving
Our programs are all rooted in our 6-Star Approach to Cooperative Driving. This proven learning model reinforces good driving habits while modifying driver behaviours and improving decision making ability. Our programs focus on training drivers to be proactive and anticipate potential risks while on the road. Drivers will have the opportunity to use these skills in the simulation labs prior to getting in the vehicle.
Defensive Driver Training
We prepare our students to be ready to safely maneuver emergency situations. Discussions in the classroom about potential emergency situations like dealing with a blown tire, avoiding a head-on collision, or rear-end collision are reinforced with experiential learning in the safety of the simulator. Students experience a variety of emergency situations in real-life scenarios on the simulator where they must put their skills to practice. Emergency maneuver skills are safely reviewed during in-vehicle lessons, with exercises like gravel shoulder recovery, rear crash avoidance, engine stall, and emergency braking.

I got my g2 on account of My instructor Johnny Le, who helped me very much. He taught me damn near everything I've learnt about driving and helped … More me with any issues I had. I would very highly reccomend that anyone books with him or Drivewise. My sister is also going with him!

I would highly recommend Drive Wise because the in class and car lessons kept my teenager engaged and excited for each lesson. It’s not very often a teen … More looks forward to attending a learning environment, however he found the staff relatable and more importantly very funny! He was surprisingly sad that his in car lessons were over. He would have loved to hang out with Johnny Lee for longer but he successfully obtained his G2 and completed his goals with Johnny. Worth every penny!
