Class 5 & Class 7
Show up to your ICBC road test calm, prepared, and in a vehicle the examiners already approve of. Road Test Car Rental ($70) is use of our dual-control car for the official test — combine with a few $55 driving classes in the same car to walk into the test centre ready, not anxious.
The Package
Use of our ICBC-approved dual-control vehicle for the official road test. The instructor accompanies you to the test centre. No last-minute scrambling to find a vehicle that meets ICBC requirements.
A 1-hour warm-up driving lesson immediately before your road test, plus use of our ICBC-approved car for the test itself. Same vehicle for warm-up and test — most popular bundle for test day.
Book one or more 60-minute driving classes in the same car before test day. Practice the maneuvers examiners watch — reverse stall, parallel parking, shoulder checks, hill starts — until they're automatic.
What ICBC Examiners Look For
ICBC road tests grade observation, control, and judgment. Our prep targets every category the examiner has on their checklist.
Mirror checks, shoulder checks, hazard scanning, and how you handle blind spots during turns and lane changes.
Smooth steering, braking, acceleration, and parking maneuvers — including reverse stall, parallel parking, and three-point turns.
Driving the posted limit, slowing for school zones, and adjusting smoothly when conditions change.
Recognizing potential hazards early — pedestrians, cyclists, parked vehicles — and responding before you have to react.
Stop signs, signals, right-of-way, lane discipline, and following distance — all the things examiners watch on every test.
Confident lane choice, signaling early, and merging without forcing other drivers to brake or change course.
Why People Fail
Skipping shoulder checks — examiners want to see the head turn, not just the eye flick
Rolling stops at right-on-red turns and four-way stops
Driving too cautiously below the posted limit (yes, this fails the test too)
Forgetting school-zone reductions during peak hours
Hesitating at uncontrolled intersections instead of taking right-of-way clearly
Wide turns or tight clipping curbs on right turns from a stopped position
Reverse stall maneuver — over-correcting and crossing into adjacent stalls
Parallel parking — finishing too far from the curb
Each pre-test driving class targets these specific patterns. Most students book 1–3 classes in the days leading up to the test.
FAQ
Road Test Car Rental ($70) covers use of our ICBC-approved dual-control vehicle for the official ICBC road test, with the instructor accompanying you to the test centre. Most students add 1–3 driving classes ($55 each) in the days before the test as warm-up practice in the same vehicle.
Yes, but it must meet ICBC's vehicle requirements (working signals, brakes, mirrors, plates, valid insurance). Many students prefer our package because the dual-control vehicle is already road-test approved and you've practiced in it.
Class 7 is the Novice (N) road test — taken after the Learner stage. Class 5 is the full unrestricted licence — taken after at least 24 months as a Novice with no violations. Either way, our $70 Road Test Car Rental covers use of the same dual-control vehicle.
The 1-Hour Class + Road Test Car bundle ($120) includes a 60-minute warm-up driving lesson immediately before your booked ICBC test slot. Your instructor reviews maneuvers, addresses any nervousness, and drives you to the test centre. Road Test Car Rental ($70) on its own does not include a full warm-up lesson — just a quick car-controls check before you head in.
Your valid Learner's licence or Novice licence, proof of identity, and your booking confirmation. ICBC also asks for the test fee payment if you haven't already paid online.
Yes. If you don't pass, ICBC will tell you when you can rebook. We'll set up additional driving classes ($55 each) targeting the specific areas the examiner flagged, then re-book the $70 Road Test for your next attempt.
