The Ottawa Canotek Drive Test Centre, situated in the scenic Eastern Ontario region, plays a crucial role in the licensing process for drivers by offering both road tests and knowledge tests across all licence classifications. The knowledge tests administered at this centre are designed to assess individuals’ understanding of essential road rules and traffic signage. These tests typically consist of 40 multiple-choice questions, which are meticulously formulated based on the official driver’s handbooks provided by the Ministry of Transportation.
To help aspiring drivers prepare effectively for these assessments, a G1 practice test is available. This resource serves as a valuable tool for enhancing one’s knowledge of road safety and regulations, ultimately increasing the likelihood of passing the test and obtaining a driver’s licence. By engaging in practice tests, candidates can familiarize themselves with the format and content of the actual knowledge test, thereby boosting their confidence and readiness for the road ahead.
