Study from the current official material
Start with the official handbook or learning resources linked below. Check the issuing authority, edition and any separate amendments; the date of a downloaded file does not establish that its rules or fees are current. Keep the official website available when a question concerns a requirement that may have changed.
Study one subject at a time, explain its rules in your own words and then practise related questions. When an explanation and an official requirement appear to disagree, use the official source for your jurisdiction and report the discrepancy to DrivePreKit. This page links to official resources rather than claiming ownership of or republishing a handbook.
Choose G1 application or licence exchange
Ontario’s first-time route and its out-of-province exchange route are different applications. Start with the route matching your residence and existing licence. The G1 application includes knowledge and vision requirements; do not use a G2 road-test calendar as the way to arrange a first knowledge test.
Prepare original identification for the service
Use DriveTest’s current acceptable-document list and the selected service’s instructions to prepare your visit. Resolve name differences or translation needs before travelling. Check the current residence declarations, service location and payment arrangements on the official pages; a successful practice session does not satisfy administrative requirements.
Study rules and signs, then review mistakes
Use the MTO handbook for Ontario signs, intersections, road sharing and licence conditions. Keep a list of rules behind missed questions instead of memorising answer order. DrivePreKit’s car practice catalogue can support that study, while the handbook and licensing authority remain the references for official requirements.
