In Ontario, the driving license system includes three stages: G1, G2, and a full G license. Drivers have 5 years to complete the G1 and G2 stages and earn a full G license. For more information on each stage, visit the Drive Test website (https://drivetest.ca/licences/licences-overview/).
In Ontario, you can start the theory portion of a Beginner Driver Education (BDE) course before turning 16, at 15 years and 10 months. However, in-car training requires a valid G1 license, which requires a minimum age of 16.
