We are the new private operator of Ontario's 56 Driver Examination Centres, formerly managed by the Ontario Ministry of Transportation. Our DriveTest Centre teams are helping maintain Ontario's road safety record with great customer service, such as reducing waiting time for a road test appointment and more convenient operating hours. With streamlined service, you can focus on what's important: meeting all the requirements to obtain an Ontario driver's licence.
What's New?
- As of August 1, 2010, all young drivers 21 and under, regardless of licence class, must have a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of zero. Novice drivers and fully licensed drivers 21 and under will receive an immediate 24-hour roadside driver's licence suspension if caught drinking and driving.
- Also effective August 1, 2010, Ontario introduced an escalating sanctions regime for novice drivers convicted of violating any of the graduated licensing conditions, or for a Highway Traffic Act (HTA) offence that results in 4 or more demerit points, or receives a court-ordered suspension for an HTA offence that would have resulted in 4 or more demerit points.
