What is the difference between a knowledge test and a road test? +
The knowledge test is a written multiple-choice exam on road rules and signs — taken at the licensing office. The road test is the in-vehicle practical exam where an examiner evaluates your driving on actual roads. Most provinces require passing the knowledge test first to receive a learner permit, then the road test for a full or probationary licence.
Can I take my test at any centre in my province? +
In most provinces yes — you can book at any centre regardless of where you live. Some new drivers choose centres with shorter wait times or in areas where they are comfortable with the local roads.
What do I need to bring to a knowledge test? +
Generally you need two pieces of government-issued ID (one with photo), proof of residency, and the test fee. In Ontario bring your health card or passport and a utility bill. In BC bring two pieces of ID and $15. Requirements vary by province — check the official authority's website before attending.
How do I prepare for the knowledge test? +
Read your provincial driver's handbook from cover to cover (available free on the official authority's website), then take free practice tests on LicenceReady. Consistent practice test scores above 85–90% indicate you are ready for the real exam.
