Knowledge tests for all licence classes are:
- Created by the Ministry of Transportation (MTO).
- Available on paper (at all locations) and on the computer (at some locations).
- Multiple choice. (Sample questions for a Class G1 test are available on the MTO website.)
- Not timed – you can take all the time you need to finish the test (until the office closes).
- Available in English or French, at a minimum. (Class G1 knowledge tests are offered in 28 languages.)
- Offered in all DriveTest Centres.
- Available without an appointment. (Come at least one hour before the office closes to avoid disappointment.)
- Marked on the spot, so you will get your results immediately.
This type of test is proctored at a DriveTest Centre to prevent misconduct among test takers. Anyone discovered cheating or disrupting other test-takers will be asked to leave the test room, receive an unsuccessful mark, lose their test fee, and will have to wait until the following day to rewrite the test.
