If you study the MTO handbook, your probability of passing is a terrible 49%

Does the idea of getting your G1 make your palms sweaty? Caps your enthusiasm? It should - because it’s one of the most important steps you’ll ever take. Unfortunately, the average Ontario passing rate is just 49%1. Notorious 5-hour-long lines, ancient computers that throw tricky questions at you: lots of stress! But the main reason so many people fail is because they only rely on the province-issued handbook to prepare.

What's wrong with the handbook?

The MTO handbook alone is not enough

It’s no secret: the official MTO handbook is a bloated behemoth. It's an outdated list of rules and regulations, a tedious document that isn’t helpful for studying. And since it’s written by lawyers, it’s a giant list of things you probably don’t need to know. The worst part is the lack of structure; there’s no clear path for how to learn it. That's why so many people fail. They're not stupid - they just didn't have the right tools.

A quicker, smarter way to study

Unlock 300+ exam-like questions

Introducing G1 Premium: the no-fail way to pass your knowledge exam on the first try – without going to class or memorizing a dated handbook. You’ll unlock over 300 Ontario-specific practice questions written by curriculum experts, vetted by driving instructors, and seen on the official exam.

"Passed in literally 10 minutes."

“This is the right way if you want to pass the test at onceI passed in literally 10 minutes with only 1 mistake and the mistake was a silly one that I just mixed with another sign, which I noticed right after I clicked! All the questions on G1.ca are exactly the same as in the real test, same wording, same everything!”

Luiz Oliveira
Oakville

"Passed fully in 3 days!"

“Passed fully in 3 days! Honestly, I was not ready for my G1 at all, I was looking on other websites, but they were not sufficient for me. Ran into this, was willing to take the risk and see how this site does, and I am glad I did, because 3 days later, I passed.”

Dylan Singh
Ottawa

"Never felt more prepared!"

“I most definitely passed because of this site. Questions were almost identical to the practice ones they provide. I would recommend to ANYone who is going for their g1. To be honest, I never even opened the MTO book - it was purely from this site and I got a perfect score on my test!”

“Thank goodness for G1.ca. Wow! You made it easy. Who needs to study the book? I passed full marks.”
Sherise Reander

"Please don't waste your time - just buy this course."

“I've been putting off getting my G1 license since moving to Ontario for the last 3 years. After getting discouraged by the wordy drivers manual, I decided to check online for alternative options. I'll keep it short; I bought this program on Wednesday morning and with a few hours of studying, I felt confident enough to take the exam and was able to pass the G1 knowledge test on Thursday night at the DriveTest centre with 40/40 correct questions. The wording in the practice questions in this program are nearly, if not identical, to those on the actual exam. I really do believe that this method of studying was both highly effective and time efficient as all questions were backed up with quotes from the MTO handbook which helped reinforce the info when trying to memorize it.”
Audrey J.
Brampton

"150% recommend"

“I had been reading through the MTO book, but it was such a grind. Came across this service, and spent an entire day working through the provided tests and learning. Literally the next day I went to DriveTest and got my G1. There was only 1 question in the G1 test that did not have an answer that I knew from this service, however the answer was easily worked out with information I had learned from it. 150% recommend.”
Peter J.
Oakville

"Great stuff"

“Worth it! You don't need to read the manual if you do all the tests in the premium version. I would recommend this 100%. I had just 1 error out of 40 questions. Great stuff.”

"No joke, this thing is accurate."

“Just study with this every day for like 30 mins and when you write the actual one you'll be fine. Great site. No joke, this thing is accurate.”

"Highly recommend for newcomers"

“Learned more than anticipated. The images and simulators help with better understanding. Highly recommend for newcomers in Canada who aren't aware of driving rules and law.”
Mubaraka

"I love the active recall approach."

“Signing up and paying for a G1.ca premium account was really straightforward, easy and quick. I could sign in and begin studying immediately. I love the website, it’s smooth and effortless to use. I love the active recall approach the tests use. The pass guarantee is a great insurance policy - if it doesn’t help you pass your test, you can get a refund. And it offers Night mode, which is great for dark mode lovers like myself.”
Obianuju
Burlington

"This was awesome!"

“This was awesome! It basically drilled the info into my head, I passed with only 4 errors in total. Test only took me 10 min (errors were probably made due to answering too fast) I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to pass the first time.”
Shawn Amour
Brampton

"Passed without a single mistake!"

“Well let's put it this way: I skimmed through the MTO official book and found it very dry and difficult to prepare for the written test using it as the only resource. I only used G1 Premium for 3 days before my test, for a total of no more than 4 hours. I passed the test without a single mistake... The questions on G1 are literally the same you'll find in the test so I strongly recommend you focus on the online tests and just get the book for reference...”
Nikky F.
North York

"I passed in literally 10 minutes."

“This is the right way if you want to pass the test at once, I’ve studied through the tests and marathons and guess what? I passed in literally 10 minutes with only 1 mistake and the mistake was a silly one that I just mixed with another sign, which I noticed right after I clicked! All the questions on G1.ca are exactly the same as in the real test, same wording, same everything!”
Luiz Oliveira
Oakville

"I'm impressed."

“I'm impressed with how helpful the practice questions were, so much so that I aimed for full marks and restarted until I am crystal clear with the answers (which aids in reminding you over and over as well). I am feeling more confident with each tests' steps taken. Thank you!”
Junius Cheng
Hamilton

"Helped to know where I stand."

“Really helped to know where I stand in terms of my preparation using this tests otherwise I would have made a lots of silly mistakes in the real test.”
Jomon Andrews
Burlington

"The book didn’t prepare me nearly as much as these tests did."

“Thanks soooooo much for all ur help it was awesome!!! The Driver’s book even in its importance didn’t prepare me nearly as much as these tests did. Practice practice practice and I passed!”
Annikka Aqui Ramrattan
Toronto

"Timely, helpful with a dash of humour!"

“Thank you for the practice it was worth it & timely! loved the additional police guy humour at the end of each practice, it does relief some stress!”
Rose Mercieca
Kitchener

"The exact same as the real test."

“These practice tests are the exact same as the real test. I finished near perfect within 5 minutes because the questions were worded the same and even the same multiple choice options. Would not have passed it I only read the book, I highly recommend premium.”
Mya Jackson
Milton

"Worked very well!"

“My son used these practice exams for 5 days after reading the MTO handbook. The exam took him about 20 minutes to write and he passed on first attempt!”
Renaldo
Toronto

"So much easier then reading the book."

“My test was in 2 days and I passed my G1 within 10 minutes and all the questions in the knowledge test was almost the same as the practice test on this website. It was so much easier then reading the book. You are guaranteed to pass!”
Donna Thompson
Brampton

"Best investment ever made."

“Excellent resource, if you complete all the sources, you are guaranteed to pass. Best investment ever made. It is hard to pass G1 knowledge test without studying, but this website provides a fun way to study. Questions in the test were almost the same as provided in the practice tests.”
Dr Arnamoy Bhattacharyya
Canada

"Never felt more prepared."

“I most definitely passed because of this site. Questions were almost identical to the practice ones they provide. I would recommend to ANYone who is going for their g1. To be honest, I never even opened the MTO book - it was purely from this site and I got a perfect score on my test!”
Emma
Richmond Hill

"Word for word."

“Each and every question I had in the test was covered (word for word) in the practice questions I did in G1.ca... and I have to admit I only finished 50% of what the course was offering, yet I passed 39 questions out of 40 in the real test within 30 minutes max! Highly recommended to get this course and practice on it before your G1 knowledge exam, as some questions are tricky and getting four wrong out of forty is very probable.”
Fadi Hourani
Oakville

"The test was identical."

“Amazing! The test was identical. Word of advice: all you have to study is the first 5 "practice tests" to pass your G1. The rest is good info to review after you pass the test. The 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the price. Should be around $25.”
Sammy Mpay
Brampton

"Passed the same day."

“I booked a test at 3pm for the G1 test at 5pm. I purchased this review and I was able to pass both the rules and even a perfect score on my road signs! This review really works!”

Detailed explanations reveal the "why" behind every answer

For each question, you'll see an explanation of the right answer immediately after you choose an answer option. We've simplified the vague and complex language of driving rules so you can quickly master the concepts and answer the question correctly next time, no matter how it's worded on the exam. Check out how this works…

When driving on a street designed for two-way traffic, you hear the siren of an emergency vehicle. What does the law require you to do?
Speed up and get out of the way.
Continue at the same speed.
Signal the driver to pass.
Pull to the right as far as possible and stop.
You must give way to the emergency vehicle.
If you hear the siren of an emergency vehicle, pull to the right as far as possible and stop. Don't worry; other drivers will do the same.
If you are approaching an intersection and the traffic lights are not working, you should
treat it as a four-way stop sign.
slow down and proceed with caution.
stop until no cars are passing and then go.
yield to the traffic to your right.
yield to the traffic to your right.
During an electrical failure, traffic lights at intersections will not work. Proceed cautiously and use the intersection the same way you would use an intersection with all-way stop signs.
If you are involved in an accident in which someone is injured, you must
report the accident to the Ministry of Transportation only.
report the accident to your insurance company only.
report the accident at once to the nearest provincial or municipal police officer.
report the accident within 48 hours to the nearest provincial or municipal police officer.
The sooner you do it the better!
If you are involved in an accident in which someone is injured, you must report the accident at once to the nearest provincial or municipal police officer.

Pass the G1 exam – guaranteed, or get your money back

Our Pass Guarantee (available on 30-day access plan and longer) means you’ll get your money back if you complete the Premium program but don’t pass your knowledge test. With Premium, you’re 100% guaranteed to pass. No gimmicks. No risk. Nothing to lose.

How Pass Guarantee protects you →

Like having your own private driving class, at a fraction of the cost

Over 4,200 learners have used Premium to pass their G1 exam. See how our program compares to traditional driving schools.

G1 Premium Traditional Driving Schools
  Traditional Driver's Ed G1 Premium
Cost $500-$800typically for classroom plus behind the wheel $49+Unlimited use
Convenience Many private driving schools have rigid schedules. You may have to take a class every day for a week. You must show up on time for class, and if you miss enough classes, you may have to retake the whole course. Instant access; use it 24/7. Study from home or on the go whenever you wish. Covers knowledge tests for first-time drivers, international drivers, and seniors.
Duration Typically 30 hours classroom + 6 hours behind the wheel + 6 hours’ observation of another student behind the wheel. Convenient membership that starts from one week. Use it until you’ve passed your G1 test. Come back again if you ever have to retake the knowledge test and need a “refresher.”
Personalized Instruction No personalization. You study in a group of 10–20 students. You may struggle to keep up with the faster students or be bored when the teacher has to explain things to the slower students. Your mistakes are automatically stored in the Challenge Bank for you to review. Tests are divided into several difficulty levels. Study at your own pace.
Knowledge Retention Traditional passive (instructor-centered) methods of teaching. Poor retention. Remember the concepts faster by intensive drilling with engaging practice tests based on the official driver's manual, relevant Ontario laws and regulations.
Guarantee You'll Pass Most private driving schools don't offer money-back guarantees. At the end of the program, you typically get a certificate and a handshake. Comes with a Pass Guarantee (30-day access and longer). We promise that you'll pass your G1 test or we'll refund you in full.

See which plan is best for you

I only have a day or two before the exam - will this help me?
When your test is coming up so soon, you don't really have time to read the handbook from cover to cover. You just want to prepare quickly so you can be done and gone. The ultra-affordable "Crash Course" plan provides seven full days of access and unlocks a huge set of exam-like materials that have helped over 4,000 customers get behind the wheel. Choose it if you have at least one day to prepare, but would like to avoid the painful boredom of MTO manuals. If Pass Guarantee is important, get the "Early Bird" instead.
I have plenty of time before the exam. Will Premium prepare me well?
When you've started well in advance and have ample time to prepare and fully learn the rules of the road, you need a LOT of extra practice. If you've tried reading the handbook, you'll know that it's poorly organized, overly verbose and lacks the visual explanations. A guided and well-structured program with a regularly updated question bank works much better for retention. Both "Early Bird" and "Bulletproof" provide full access to our interactive in-depth study system that's a lot more involved than just reading the bool or passively watching Youtube videos. If you plan to study for longer than 30 days and/or have family members who may need to obtain their driving licence as well, we recommend the "Bulletproof" plan that comes with Family Sharing for three people.
I've failed my G1 exam. How can I be sure this will help me?
When you've been struggling to pass on your own and your previous attempt was unsuccessful, you need a different approach. Something that will help you retain the information better and won't leave you feeling desperately insecure. Choose the "Bulletproof" plan if you want to be over-prepared (in a good way) and to build confidence with increasing difficulty levels as you cover every topic you'll be tested on. You'll have full access to everything our program offers, including the Test Anxiety Relief audio course and tricky questions that no one really talks about, like "how close to railroad tracks can you park your car" vs. "how far from railroad tracks do you stop your car when a train is going by". These kinds of nuanced differences are made clear and easy. You'll also go over the more difficult issues so you could memorize things like keeping distances between cars when driving and distances it takes to stop a car at certain speeds when driving. With the industry-leading 95.2% success rate and our Pass Guarantee, you'll be sure to pass.
I've moved to Ontario from another country. Which plan do I get?
Just relocated to Ontario? Our province may require you to pass their knowledge exam to renew your out-of-country license. You probably haven't taken the written exam in years. When you've got a family that depends on you, your work and a lot of other commitments, you don't have time to study the entire handbook. Good news: being an experienced driver, you don't have to start from scratch - all you need is a clearly laid-out refresher with the information specific to Ontario. The new laws, penalties, fines, suspensions, etc. Depending on how much time you can afford, choose the "Early Bird" or the "Bulletproof"; both plans offer full access to our exam-like question database and will make sure you're fully prepared so you can get back to your life as soon as possible. If your spouse or teenage kids plan on getting their licenses soon as well, get the "Bulletproof" which comes with Family Sharing for three family members.
How is Premium better than the free tests?
Our free tests are awesome, but Premium gives you even more opportunities to study. You'll gain experience with more types of questions and more ways of wording things. If you're not using Premium, you only see a fraction of the kinds of questions you may see on your exam. Upgrading to Premium lets you give yourself every opportunity to succeed. Finally, our Cheat Sheets focus on the DMV's most frequently asked questions, giving you another great way to study and make sure you haven't missed anything.
