Driving Test
It’s important that you avoid sites and sources using old G1 test questions and answers. Laws and regulations are constantly changing and you can’t count on old practice tests to ask the right questions or give you the most up to date answers. You need a free G1 driving test that is as close to the one you will take at Ontario driver's testing facility as possible.
The main purpose of the G1 written test is to assess a person's theory knowledge of driving. It is to ensure learner drivers are aware of those traffic signs, road rules, and traffic signals so that they can act accordingly and safely.
We have created five interactive quizzes whose questions are nearly identical to the ones you will see on your G1 written test. If you can pass each of the five quizzes without any outside assistance, you are ready to take the real thing. Good luck!
Be an Active Seat Passenger
After the main rules of driving are firmly grasped, it is time to sit in the passenger's seat of an experienced driver and glean. Try to watch exactly what actions are taken at each intersection. Notice the signs and scan the area just the way the actual driver is doing. Then make sure that with each move, the rationale behind why is uncovered. This may entail asking the driver questions when a certain action seems unclear. The cases where there is a special exception are particularly great tools for teaching. These are the times when the learner has an opportunity to master a certain tricky situation. Guaranteed that this kind of sticky driving circumstances will be the exact sort of scenario that will arise on the driving test written exam. The learner should make sure that they bring a notebook and pen along on these rides. It will be easy to forget everything that is being said, so the best thing to do will be making some scenario notes that can be reviewed later.
