Distracted driving is now an all too real problem and major cause of motor vehicle accidents. It’s in the best interest of young drivers to learn from a certified driving instructor who can assist them with understanding the theory during their 20 hours and becoming comfortable behind the wheel. Mature drivers can always benefit from taking mini courses to refresh their memory and hone their driving skills. Driving schools hire professional instructors who do everything they can to help you pass your road test, whether you’re anxious or need little tricks to remember provincial laws.
Enrolling in a driving school gives your teen a good foundation to become a safe and responsible driver.
You’re not required by law to enroll in a driving school. At the age of 16, you can do the G1 test right away to get your beginners driver’s licence. Some schools will allow you to start driver’s training prior to doing the G1 test, but it’s better to complete the test first, so you can do the in-car lessons.
It’s important to note that people who have attended driving schools are allowed to complete their G2 road test 8 months after writing the G1 test, whereas those who didn’t attend a school will have to wait 12 months.
Attending a ministry-approved driving school, like Ambitious Drivers, has its benefits. Insurers can provide first-time drivers who have graduated from a certified school with a lower insurance premium. It’s possible to have savings of up to 10%. Because insurers have the choice of providing you with a reduction, you’ll need to shop around to find the best deal. Providing the companies with a Driver’s Licence History report from the government will put you in a better light since it’s been statistically proven that defensive driving courses reduce your chances of having an accident.
Additionally, young drivers with driver’s training can usually benefit from insurance savings over the course of three years.
Experienced instructors can teach students about driving issues that may not be in the textbook. They will give you a thorough education of the dangers, solutions, and tips related to driving safely. Instructors will see first-hand where your weaknesses are and help you to strengthen them.
Ambitious Drivers offers two full course packages that include 20 hours of in-class training and 10 hours of in-car training. We also offer mini courses. You’ll find that we provide competitive driving school prices.
Our complete packages are $580 and $725. While both packages will teach young drivers all of the necessary driving techniques, the difference between the two is that the more expensive option includes a G2 Road test car rental. The average cost of a thorough driving school training course in Ontario is $600.
