Driving Test Preparation in Ajax, Ontario
Ajax is a suburban town in Durham Region, east of Toronto along Lake Ontario. Ajax drivers typically use the DriveTest centre in nearby Whitby on Consumers Drive. Driving in Ajax involves navigating a mix of suburban roads, commercial corridors, and major arterials like Harwood Avenue, Salem Road, and Bayly Street. Ajax has a large Caribbean, South Asian, and Filipino community. The town's road network includes many school zones and pedestrian crossings, as well as access to Highway 401.
Whether you're a new immigrant, a teenager getting your first licence, or someone who moved to Ajax from another province or country, Ontario's Graduated Licensing System (GLS) applies to you. The process starts with the G1 knowledge test — a 40-question written exam at a DriveTest centre — followed by the G2 road test and finally the G full licence test.
G1 Knowledge Test in Ajax — What to Expect
The G1 practice test Ajax drivers need to prepare for is a 40-question multiple-choice exam. It covers two sections:
20 Road Sign Questions
Regulatory signs, warning signs, information signs, and construction zone signs. You need 16/20 (80%) to pass this section.
20 Rules of the Road Questions
Speed limits, right-of-way, school bus laws, alcohol/drug rules, and safe driving practices. You need 16/20 (80%) to pass this section.
Important: You must pass both sections independently. Passing one section but failing the other means you fail the entire test and must rebook after 10 days.
