Tests Available at White River Drive Test Centre

The G2 licence test looks at your ability to drive safely in everyday conditions. You will be tested on fundamental skills like:
- Lane changes
- Right-of-way rules
- Basic parking (parallel and angle parking)
- Control at intersections and stops
White River's routes usually have fewer vehicles on the road, making it a less intimidating setting. With fewer urban driving challenges, your preparation can focus more on technical vehicle control. Learn more about preparing for the G2 Licence Test.
G Licence Test
To achieve your full driving privileges in Ontario, the G licence test evaluates your adaptation to more complex driving situations. In particular, you will be assessed on:
- Highway driving
- Defensive driving techniques
- Overall vehicle control and attention
While White River doesn't have major highways like Highway 401, drivers are still tested for highway merging skills and maintaining safe distances on open roads. It reflects the driving conditions common to rural Ontario, preparing you for diverse road environments you might encounter outside of busy cities.
G2 Retest
If your first test wasn't successful, no worries—you can retake your G2 test at the White River location. Many drivers find that removing the pressure of urban traffic in cities helps them ace the retest.

Prepare for Your Test at White River Drive Test Centre
Before heading to White River for your test, proper preparation will make a big difference. Practise the key areas of driving so you will be comfortable during your G2 or G exam. Even with quieter roads, you need to be prepared for all possible scenarios.
G2 Test Prep
- Urban driving: Understand how to handle intersections, especially at locations with stop signs and yield signs. With fewer traffic lights in White River, you’ll need to master right-of-way rules.
- Defensive driving: Always stay aware of other vehicles and pedestrians in rural areas. Be prepared for unexpected wildlife crossings, which are common in Northern Ontario.
- Parking: White River roads offer ample space to practise parallel parking and angle parking without heavy traffic, so take advantage of this by spending time practising.
G Test Prep
- Highway driving: Practise entering and exiting highways using the rural routes around White River, even though major highways aren't part of the everyday environment. Ensure you are comfortable integrating into faster-moving traffic, especially in nearby small towns.
- Rural driving conditions: Staying steady on rural roads is important. You might have to handle gravel, uneven pavements, and other challenging rural driving conditions during your test, which you don’t often see in bigger cities.
- Defensive driving: Keep a close eye on road hazards like wildlife or slower agricultural vehicles that are often present in Northern Ontario's more remote areas.
