Frequently Asked Question
You have a question? Someone else might have had the exact same one. Let's find out!
-
What are the requirements before taking lessons?
-
How many lessons will I need?
This all depends on the student and how fast they learn. Typically it takes 10-15 hours to learn everything and a total practice time of 20-25 hours to challenge your road test.
ICBC recommends you practice a total of 60 hours. -
Am I able to use my own vehicle for lessons?
No, we cannot give lessons in your own car. Under the Motor Vehicle Act, we are not permitted to give lessons without the proper vehicle setup. Our car is fitted with dual steering wheel, brake and accelerator controls for safety reasons.
-
What are the methods of payment?
E-Transfers are now also accepted but must be sent to alexsendriving@gmail.com prior to the start of the lesson.

1 x 60 minute in-car lesson $100 CAD (Tax Included)

How often should I practice to get ready for the test?
We recommend practicing at least 2-3 times a week, whether it is with your instructor or with your parents/guardians. Basically the more you are on the road, the more experience you will get and the better you will be.
