I don't have a vehicle to practice and take a road test, will you be able to help me

We recommend 40 to 50 hours of supervised driving with someone other than instructor, however it completely depends on you. How quickly you learn and how good you are behind the wheel. You can upgrade to any package and take any number of hours of training you need to feel confident behind the wheel. We can also rent our vehicle for the road test. We are determined to see you succeed and to help you achieve your goals.

I'm new to Canada and have years of driving experience from back home, why do I need to take this course?

 Our instructors have taught lots of new immigrants over the number of years. They know where you might need help. Everyone develops some habits and its always good to know how you are doing behind the wheel. We suggest you to enrol for a brush-up lesson and get personalised advice from one of our instructor. If you decide to take few more lessons, you can upgrade to any package that suits your need.

Is it ok to finish in-vehicle training portion before classroom?

 We recommend you to attend at least first day of classroom before you go behind the wheel. This will not only help you prepare for the road, it will also help you know what to expect. Alberta government has designed it in a way that you have access to all the information you need before hand.

Do I have to have my license before I enroll for a course?

Its ok to enrol for the course without a license, but we will need your driver's licence details to process your papers during class room sessions. Certainly you cannot go behind the wheel without a valid driving licence.

Is it safe to learn to drive in winter?

Yes, its very safe to learn to drive in winter. Our vehicles are equipped with winter tires and our instructors are qualified to teach in all seasons. Eventually everyone will have to drive in winter, sooner the better.

Can we use our vehicle for our child's driver training?

There is a requirement by Alberta Transportation that all driver training vehicles should be equipped with instructor’s brake, second rear-view mirror for instructor and roof sign which should have student driver written on at least two sides. Thus, legally we can't and there is liability issue with insurance companies as well, we must have special 6D insurance coverage.

Can we reschedule lessons if we can't make it for the scheduled lesson?

We understand that sometime circumstances can make it difficult for things to go as planned. However, it can be taken care of by giving us 24 hours of advance notice, so we can rearrange things and not left with only option of absorbing the cost of that time.If someone didn't give 24 hours notice, we will charge nominal rescheduling fee.

Why does my child sometimes need more than minimum lessons required?

 Number of lessons one requires depends on lots of different factors. If the student is driving occasionally with parents before starting his driver's education, then instructor can focus on rules of the road right away. However, if the student is first day behind the wheel then instructor will focus more on vehicle handling skills for first few lessons. So, they might need few more lessons. If they are fast learners and passionate about driving, they might not need more than minimum required. We highly recommend students to practice between lessons as well, so that they can apply and revise the skills taught during lessons.

How is this course going to help my kids?

 Our courses are designed to promote proactive driving behaviour and help creating better driving environment for everyone. We understand that rules and regulations are enforced on young minds and sometimes its hard for them to follow those. If we can      successfully explain them why its important and how will this help them be safe, its going to be easier for them to follow. Not only that but it will also motivate them to get into good driving habits and retain them for life. This may have some long-term monetary benefits, like avoid traffic violation tickets, have better driving history and lower insurance rates.

Why are lessons 2 hours long?

This is a very good question. It is a common practice in driver education line of work and recommended by Alberta transportation. If we are only driving for an hour we can't go too far from pickup and drop-off location. Driving for 2 hours makes the student familiar to nearby communities as well as the city. Our focus is to give our students as much exposure as possible to real driving environment. We include downtown driving, highway driving and route planning for every student. On the other hand, this    helps them practice new skills with optimal practice, as we know, practice makes one perfect. However, if students need ashroom break or stretch breaks, they are more than welcome to request it.
