Booking Your Ontario G2 Road Test

Booking your G2 road test in Ontario is a big step towards full driving privileges. If you’re preparing for the G2 drive test and want to book through BookMyRoadTest.ca here’s what you need to know about the process, the requirements and how to prepare for success.

What Is the G2 Road Test?

The G2 road test is the second step in Ontario’s Graduated Licensing System. This test tests your driving skills in real life situations and determines if you’re ready to drive with fewer restrictions.

Passing the G2 road test moves you from a G1 to a G2 and gives you more freedom on the road. You’ll have more flexibility in where and when you drive but some restrictions still apply until you get your full G license.

G2 License Benefits

  • Drive independently: No need for a fully licensed driver in the car.

  • More flexibility: Drive at any time except for specific restrictions for young drivers.

  • More convenience: Drive to work, school and other destinations without supervision.

G2 Road Test Eligibility

To be eligible to take your G2 test in Ontario you must:

  • Have held a G1 license for at least 12 months.

  • If you’ve completed an approved driver’s education course you can take the test after 8 months with a G1.

Note: You’ll need to bring your G1 license and ID on the day of the test.

Tips to Pass the G2 Test

Passing the G2 test is more than just basic driving. Here’s what to do:

  • Use your signals: Signal every lane change and turn.

  • Stay relaxed: Nerves can lead to mistakes. Drive as you would normally.

  • Check your mirrors: Keep an eye on the road by checking your mirrors regularly.

  • Speed limits: Going above or below the speed limit will cost you points.

  • Know the area: If possible drive in the test area before to get familiar with the road conditions and speed limits.

Don’ts

Many applicants fail for simple reasons. Avoid these:

  • Not stopping fully at stop signs

  • Not signaling before turns or lane changes

  • Speeding or driving too slow

  • Not checking your blind spots before changing lanes

  • Not yielding to pedestrians

Test Day: What to Bring and What to Expect

On test day bring:

  • Your G1 license

  • ID

  • A roadworthy vehicle (all lights, wipers and signals must work)

Arrive at least 30 minutes early. Late arrivals will be rescheduled.

You’ll meet with a DriveTest examiner who will go over the test with you. Once the test starts, just drive safely and follow the examiner’s instructions.

After the Test: What to Expect?

Once you’re done:

  • Pass: You’ll get your G2 license and can drive on your own.

  • Fail: You’ll get a feedback sheet on what to improve.

If you don’t pass, you can retest. Check BookMyRoadTest.ca for available dates as some centres have long wait times.

How to Retest

If you need to retest consider:

  • Review your mistakes: Use the feedback sheet to focus on specific areas.

  • Practice more: Spend extra time on the manoeuvres you struggled with.

  • Take a refresher lesson: A driving instructor can give you tips to improve.

G2 Restrictions

With a G2 license you have more freedom but some restrictions still apply:

  • Blood alcohol concentration: Your blood alcohol level must be zero.

  • Passenger limits: If you’re under 19 and driving at night you may have passenger restrictions.

These restrictions help new drivers get experience while staying safe on the road.
