Students from Oshawa, Whitby, Courtice, Bowmanville, Ajax and Pickering take the same course: online theory you can finish at home, Homelinks practice, and one-on-one driving with an approved instructor.

Where you will drive

Lessons begin on quiet streets near your home. As you improve we move to busier multi-lane roads such as Simcoe Street and Taunton Road, so you get used to real Oshawa traffic. The Road Confidence Builder package adds highway driving practice.

Road test packages include a pre-test lesson, and you can use a Drive2Day car for your road test.
