Driving Tips for Success
Whether you’re a brand-new driver or looking to refine your skills, these expert driving tips will help you stay safe and confident on Toronto’s roads:
Master Defensive Driving
Always anticipate potential hazards. Scan intersections, maintain a safe following distance (minimum two seconds), and be prepared to brake or steer around sudden obstacles.
Know Your Vehicle
Familiarize yourself with your car’s controls like lights, wipers, and signals, along with comfort features such as seat position and mirrors. Adjust everything before each drive to ensure clear visibility and full control.
Practice Smooth Acceleration and Braking
Sudden stops or jerky starts can unsettle your vehicle and wear down your brakes faster. Aim for gradual, steady pressure on the pedals.
Use Mirrors and Blind-Spot Checks
Glance at your side and rearview mirrors every 5 to 8 seconds. Always check over your shoulder when changing lanes or merging, especially on highways and busy streets like the Gardiner Expressway.
Maintain Focus
Avoid distractions. Keep your phone out of reach, adjust music or navigation before you start driving, and limit conversations that might take your attention off the road.
Anticipate Toronto’s Unique Challenges
From slippery streetcar tracks to downtown congestion near Yonge and Dundas, spend time practicing in different areas like Downtown, Midtown, North York, Scarborough, and Etobicoke to build confidence in real-world conditions.

How Should I Evaluate My Driving School?
Choosing the right driving school can make all the difference in your confidence, safety, and test success. Here are key factors to consider:
Certification & Accreditation
Make sure the school and all instructors are certified by Ontario’s Ministry of Transportation (MTO).
Check that their curriculum meets MTO’s Beginner Driver Education (BDE) standards: 20 hours of theory and 25 hours of in-vehicle training.
Instructor Qualifications & Experience
Ask how long instructors have been teaching and whether they know test routes like Bloor Street, Yorkdale, Ajax, and Scarborough.
Look for instructors with experience teaching adult learners.
Read reviews or ask for references to learn about their teaching style, patience, and student results.
Student Success Rates
Find out the school’s G2 and G test pass rates.
A strong pass rate is a good sign of effective training and preparation.
Good schools will openly share their stats—don’t hesitate to ask.
Lesson Flexibility & Scheduling
See if lessons are available on evenings, weekends, or holidays.
A good school offers flexible schedules to fit around work, school, or family life.
Look for an easy-to-use online booking system where you can select times and instructors.
Vehicle Fleet & Availability
Check that the training cars are well-maintained, insured, and match what you’ll use for the test (automatic or manual).
If you need to rent a car for your road test, confirm availability and whether an instructor will come with you.
Curriculum Depth & Extra Resources
A quality program goes beyond the basics. Look for extras like mock tests, anxiety-reducing sessions, and refresher courses.
Bonus tools like online videos, practice quizzes, or apps can make studying easier and more effective.
Pricing & Packages
Compare hourly rates and package deals—some schools offer better value when lessons are bundled.
Ask about hidden fees, including extra charges for booking support, test-day cars, or late cancellations.
Customer Service & Communication
Are they responsive to calls or emails?
Do they send reminders before lessons or help reschedule with ease?
Good communication helps you stay organized and lowers your stress throughout the learning process.
What Are the Benefits of Driving School?
Attending a reputable driving school, especially one that’s MTO-approved, offers numerous advantages over learning solely from friends or family
Structured Curriculum
MTO-approved schools follow a proven 45-hour program (20 hours theory, 25 hours in-vehicle), ensuring you cover all essential topics from collision avoidance to complex traffic scenarios.
Professional Guidance & Feedback
Certified instructors have pedagogical training. They recognize common beginner mistakes like improper judging of speed and provide targeted, constructive feedback.
Familiarity with Test Routes
Driving schools in Toronto know the exact roads and maneuvers that come up on your G2 or G road test, such as parallel parking on College Street or navigating the Hillcrest Mall test centre. Practicing these repeatedly builds muscle memory.
Risk Minimization
Learning from an instructor in a dual-control vehicle (a car with two brake pedals and two steering systems) is safer than learning in a friend’s car, where the only brake is the driver’s foot.
Insurance Discounts
Completing an MTO-approved BDE course may qualify you for insurance discounts, often up to 10% off your premiums for a full year. Check with your insurance provider.
Confidence Building
Classroom lessons cover defensive driving, sign recognition, traffic law changes, and collision prevention, all geared toward making you a confident, law-abiding motorist.
Lower Stress on Test Day
When you’ve already practiced a mock road test in a similar car with an instructor by your side, test-day jitters are reduced. Renting a familiar vehicle from the same school adds consistency.
Up-to-Date Knowledge
Driving schools stay current with MTO screening changes, new signage, and traffic pattern updates like the recent reconfiguration of Don Valley Parkway on-ramps.

What Our Toronto Students Say
Drivezee’s instructors made me feel calm and confident. I passed my G2 on my first try.

I was incredibly nervous about parallel parking in downtown Toronto. My instructor took me to Yonge & Dundas and walked me through it step by step. Now it’s second nature!

Excellent service from start to finish. Great communication, on-time pick-ups, and a fantastic refresher course before my G road test. I wouldn’t have done it without Drivezee!
