G Test Ontario. The G Road Test Checklist These are the areas you need to practice before taking your driving test : Starting and stopping. Turning and changing directions. Traffic signs and lights. Passing vehicles, proper lane use, and driving in passing lanes. Travelling through controlled and uncontrolled intersections.
Parking, reversing, and three-point turns. Proper observation, foreseeing hazardous conditions, and blind spot checks. Road side stop. Parallel parking. Highway driving — entering, exiting, lane changes, maintaining proper speed. There is no set number of mistakes that could lead to passing or failing a G or G2 exam.
For instance, minor infractions like merging too late or failing to signal could lead to negative points, while one major mistake such as speeding in a school zone would be grounds for an immediate fail. However, making too many minor mistakes could also lead to failing the exam. If you fail the G road test you will have to wait around 10 days before you can take it again. It will also depend on how soon you can book an available time to take the test.
Certain times of the year can also affect booking availability. If you want more information about the process and requirements for road tests you can find it here. In Ontario, you as the driver are responsible for keeping your license information up to date as far as the status of your vision. If your status changes, you have to notify the DriveTest Centre.
However, you might be asked at any point during your license application or renewal to complete a vision test. The tests only take a few minutes and are performed by any employee at a DriveTest Centre. You will be asked to look into a special piece of equipment while wearing your corrective lenses if you need them to drive. Here is a breakdown of the various fees you can pay for a test or test package:.
You can pay with almost any method. Length — Approximately 20 — 30 minutes but there is no hard limit. When stopped behind another vehicle at an intersection, leave enough space to pull out and pass without having to back up. Leaving this space protects you in three ways: it lets you pull around the vehicle in front if it stalls; it helps prevent you from being pushed into the vehicle ahead if you are hit from behind; and it reduces the risk of collision if the vehicle ahead rolls backward or backs up.
If you are the first vehicle approaching an intersection with a red light or stop sign, stop behind the stop line if it is marked on the pavement.
If there is no stop line, stop at the crosswalk, marked or not. If there is no crosswalk, stop at the edge of the sidewalk. If there is no sidewalk, stop at the edge of the intersection. When waiting to make a left turn, keep your front wheels straight. With your wheels turned left, your vehicle could be pushed into oncoming traffic. When waiting to turn right, keep the wheels straight if there is a risk of being pushed into pedestrians crossing the intersection.
If you are stopped, waiting for a green light or for the way to be clear, keep checking traffic all around you. Just before entering the intersection, look left, ahead and right to check that the way is clear.
If there is any doubt about the right-of-way, try to make eye contact with nearby drivers or pedestrians. If it is possible for another vehicle to overtake you while you are turning, check your blind spot before starting to turn. You have not properly checked traffic if another vehicle or pedestrian has the right-of-way and must take action to avoid your vehicle.
Use both hands to turn the steering wheel throughout the turn. You are most at risk from other traffic when turning. Using both hands on the wheel gives you maximum steering control when you need it most. An exception to this is if you have a disability that prevents you from using both hands.
In a vehicle with manual transmission, do not shift gears during the turn. If you need to, you may shift gears immediately after the vehicle is moving but before it is well into the turn. You may also shift gears in an intersection wider than four lanes if not doing so would slow down other traffic.
Generally, not changing gears gives you more control over your vehicle when turning. Move ahead within four to five seconds after it is safe to start. Make the turn at a steady speed, increasing speed as you complete the turn. Drive slowly enough to keep full control of your vehicle without slowing down other traffic.
Turn into the corresponding lane on the intersecting road without going over any lane markings or curbs. This driving task completes the turn. It begins when you enter the intersecting road and ends when you return to normal traffic speed.
Take the following actions:. End your turn in the lane that corresponds to the lane you turned from. If you are turning left onto a multi-lane road, return to normal traffic speed and move into the curb lane when it is safe to do so. If you are turning right onto a road where the right lane is blocked with parked vehicles or cannot be used for other reasons, move directly to the next available lane.
As you return to normal traffic speed, check your mirrors to become aware of the traffic situation on the new road. Return to normal traffic speed by accelerating smoothly to blend with the traffic around you.
In light traffic, accelerate moderately. In heavier traffic, you may have to accelerate more quickly. In a vehicle with manual transmission, shift gears as you increase speed. It begins at the point where you can see the intersection and ends just before you enter the intersection.
Be sure to follow these actions:. Steadily reduce speed as you approach the intersection. In a with manual transmission, you may downshift into a lower gear as you slow down. This driving task includes the actions you take while stopped and waiting to move through the intersection. Remember these points:. When traffic conditions allow, move forward to check that the way is clear or start across the intersection. When stopped behind another at the intersection, leave enough space to pull out and pass without having to back up.
Leaving this space protects you in three ways: it lets you pull around the in front if it stalls; it helps prevent you from being pushed into the ahead if you are hit from behind; and it reduces the risk of collision if the ahead rolls backward or backs up. If you are the first approaching an intersection with a red light or stop sign, stop behind the stop line if it is marked on the pavement. This task includes the actions you take as you drive through the intersection and return to normal traffic speed.
Make sure to follow these actions:. Keep both hands on the steering wheel as you drive through the intersection. You are most at risk from other traffic when you are crossing the intersection.
In a vehicle with manual transmission, do not shift gears crossing the intersection. If you need to, you may shift gears immediately after the vehicle is moving but before it is well into the intersection. Generally, not changing gears gives you more control over your vehicle. As you return to normal traffic speed, check your mirrors to become aware of the traffic situation after you have gone through the intersection.
It begins at the point where you can see the intersection and ends just before the entrance to the intersection. Remember to do the following:. As you approach the intersection, look left and right for traffic on the intersecting road. If you have to slow down for the intersection, check your mirrors for traffic behind you. Keep at the same speed as you go through the intersection unless there is a chance traffic may cross the intersection in front of you.
If so, slow down or hold your foot over the brake, ready to slow down or stop. Watch for pedestrians about to cross the intersection and vehicles edging into the intersection or approaching at higher speeds.
This driving task includes your actions from the time you enter the intersection until you have crossed it and are returning to normal traffic speed. Do not go over lane markings or change lanes in the intersection. If your lane is blocked by a vehicle turning left or a vehicle edging into the intersection from the right, slow down or stop instead of pulling out to go around the vehicle. Using both hands on the wheel givesyou maximum steering control when you need it most.
In a vehicle with manual transmission, do not shift gears while crossing the intersection. If you need to, you may shift gears immediately after the is moving but before it is well into the intersection. If you slowed down for the intersection, check your mirrors again before returning to normal traffic speed.
This driving task begins on the entrance ramp to a freeway and ends when you have reached the speed of the traffic on the freeway. While on the ramp, as soon as you can see freeway traffic approaching from behind, check your mirrors and blind spot for a space to merge safely.
At the same time, watch any vehicles in front of you on the ramp and keep back a safe distance. Continue to divide your attention between watching in front, checking your mirrors and looking over your shoulder to check your blind spot until you can merge safely with traffic. If you have not done so already, turn on your signal as soon as traffic on the freeway is able to see your vehicle on the ramp. While on the ramp and merging with freeway traffic, keep at least a two- to three-second distance behind the vehicle in front of you.
Time your merge so you do not move in beside another vehicle or into the blind spot of another vehicle. If traffic is heavy or moving at such a high speed that it is difficult to keep an ideal following distance, adjust your speed to get the best spacing possible. While on the ramp and in the acceleration lane, keep inside the lane markings. On the curve of the entrance ramp, keep your speed slow enough so that objects and people inside your vehicle are not pushed from the force created by turning the curve.
While in the acceleration lane, increase your speed to match that of freeway traffic. While merging, control your speed to blend smoothly with freeway traffic. Merge with freeway traffic in a smooth, gradual movement to the centre of the nearest freeway lane.
This driving task checks your actions driving along the freeway but not merging, changing lanes or exiting. Be sure to remember the following points:. While driving along, keep checking traffic all around you and look in your mirrors every five to 10 seconds. Avoid exceeding the speed limit or driving unreasonably slowly. Whenever possible, drive at a steady speed. Look ahead to where you are going to be in the next 12 to 15 seconds for dangerous situations or obstacles that you can avoid by changing your speed.
Always keep at least a two- to three-second distance behind the vehicle in front of you. If another vehicle follows too closely behind you, give yourself even more room in front or change lanes. Try to keep a space on both sides of your vehicle, and try not to drive in the blind spots of other vehicles.
Avoid driving behind large vehicles. Because of their size, they block your view of traffic more than other vehicles. This driving task begins when you are driving in the far right lane of the freeway and can see the exit you want to take. It ends when you reach the end of the exit ramp. Before moving into the exit lane, look left and right and check your mirrors. If there is a lane of traffic on your right, such as an acceleration lane from an entrance ramp or a paved shoulder, remember also to check your right blind spot.
Enter the exit lane at the beginning of the lane with a smooth, gradual movement. Stay inside the lane markings. If there are two or more exit lanes, do not cross solid lines on the pavement to change lanes. Do not slow down before you are completely in the exit lane. Once you are in the lane, slow gradually without causing traffic to pile up behind you.
On the curve of the exit ramp, keep your speed slow enough so that objects and people inside your vehicle are not pushed from the force created by turning the curve.
In a vehicle with manual transmission, downshift as you reduce speed. This driving task begins as you look for a space to change lanes and ends when you have completed the lane change. While waiting to change lanes safely, look all around you. Divide your attention between watching in front, watching the mirrors and checking your blind spot. If there is another lane beside the one you are moving into, check traffic in that lane to avoid colliding with a vehicle moving into the lane at the same time as you do.
Turn on your signal when there is enough space for you to change lanes. After signalling, check your blind spot one more time before starting to move into the other lane. Your signal should be on soon enough to give traffic behind you time to react to the signal. If traffic in the lane you are moving into is heavy, you may turn on your signal before there is enough space to change lanes. This will let traffic behind you know that you are looking for a space to change lanes. Keep at least a two- to three-second distance behind the vehicle in front of you.
If there is another lane beside the one you are moving into, be careful not to move in beside another vehicle or into the blind spot of another vehicle. Keep both hands on the steering wheel as you change lanes.
Using both hands on the wheel gives you maximum steering control. This driving task begins when the examiner tells you to stop and ends once you have come to a stop. Make sure you take these actions:. Before slowing down, check your mirrors and scan to see if it is legal look for signs to make the roadside stop.
