G1 Practice Test for Indians in Canada — 200 Questions
📌

Complete guide: Driving Tests Canada Indians

This Ontario G1 practice test for Indian newcomers contains 200 original study questions: five mock tests, each with 20 road-sign questions and 20 rules-of-the-road questions. The questions are based on topics covered in the Official MTO Driver’s Handbook, checked on July 27, 2026.

Use a target of at least 16 correct answers out of 20 in each section. DriveTest states that a knowledge test requires at least 80% and that a section that does not meet MTO standards may need to be retaken.

These are not official DriveTest questions. They are independently written practice questions. The official test can use different wording, answer order and scenarios. Study the handbook instead of memorizing only the answer letters on this page.

How the 200 questions are divided

Each mock test keeps road signs and road rules separate. This makes it easier to see whether a high score in one area is hiding a weak area in the other.

Five Ontario G1 mock tests
Mock test Road signs Road rules Main focus
Test 1 20 20 Core signs, G1 conditions and basic right-of-way
Test 2 20 20 Warning signs, intersections, turns and lane changes
Test 3 20 20 Work zones, school buses, streetcars and shared roads
Test 4 20 20 Signals, highways, parking and railway crossings
Test 5 20 20 Pavement markings, winter driving, emergencies and 2026 licence rules

Indian licence holders and the July 1, 2026 Ontario change

India does not have a direct passenger-vehicle licence exchange agreement with Ontario. An Indian licence holder normally enters Ontario’s graduated licensing process and completes the required vision, knowledge and road tests.

Rule in effect from July 1, 2026: an eligible driver from a jurisdiction without an exchange agreement may receive up to 12 months of verified foreign driving-experience credit. The driver must still complete both the G2 and G road tests. The credited experience cannot reduce the mandatory waiting period between the G2 and G road tests.

The credit is not automatic. DriveTest may need the original foreign licence and other evidence that confirms the licence status and driving experience. Check the Ontario foreign-licence rules and the foreign driving-experience credit requirements before relying on an Indian driving extract, authentication letter or translation.

Road terms that can change the meaning of a test question

The wording is often as important as the traffic rule. These terms appear repeatedly in Ontario road material.

Common Ontario driving terms in plain English
Term Plain-English meaning Where it appears
Yield Let another road user go first; stop if needed Merging and intersections
Right-of-way The legal priority to proceed Turns, crossings and intersections
Curb The raised edge beside a roadway Parking and turning
Shoulder The area beside the normal travel lane Breakdowns and emergencies
Median A physical strip or barrier separating opposing traffic School-bus and divided-road questions
Blind spot An area not visible in the mirrors Lane changes and passing
Pedestrian crossover A marked crossing where drivers must yield as required Pedestrian questions
Hydroplaning Loss of tire contact caused by water on the road Rain and emergency control
Black ice A thin layer of ice that may be hard to see Winter-driving questions

Ontario driving situations worth studying separately

  • Right-side traffic: turns must finish in the correct Ontario lane, especially after leaving a parking area or divided road.
  • Four-way stops: the first complete stop normally goes first; simultaneous arrivals use the vehicle-on-the-right rule.
  • Right turn on red: a complete stop and a clear check for signs, pedestrians, cyclists and traffic come before the turn.
  • School buses: the physical median changes whether opposite-direction traffic must stop.
  • Streetcars: passengers may step directly into the roadway when there is no safety island.
  • Winter roads: the posted speed can be too fast for snow, ice or poor visibility.

Scoring the mock tests

Choose an answer before opening the answer panel. Count road signs and road rules separately. A useful readiness target is 16/20 or better in both sections on more than one test, without checking notes.

  2. Brake hard
  3. Turn sharply
  4. Accelerate through the water

  2. Reach down and pull the pedal while moving
  3. Turn the ignition to the steering-lock position
  4. Accelerate harder

  1. No
  2. Yes, to zero

Section target: Road Signs 16/20 or better; Rules of the Road 16/20 or better. Review the explanation for every guessed answer, even when the guess was correct.

G1 test-day details checked for July 2026

DriveTest states that knowledge tests normally take about 20 to 30 minutes. Tests at DriveTest Centres are generally offered on a first-come-first-served basis, so arriving at least one hour before closing is recommended. Check the selected centre before travelling because service arrangements can vary.

Ontario G1 fees listed by DriveTest
Item Listed fee What it covers
Class G1 licence package C$159.75 Knowledge test, Class G2 road test and five-year licence fee
Extra knowledge-test attempt C$16.00 Each additional attempt

Fees can change. Confirm the amount on the current DriveTest fees before payment.

Language options

Computerized knowledge tests are available in up to 32 languages, depending on licence class and availability. Paper-based G1 tests are available in 20 languages. A verbal knowledge test can be arranged, and an interpreter may need to meet DriveTest requirements. Confirm the language and test method through the DriveTest language and interpreter options before visiting a centre.

What to take to the centre

  • Original, valid identity documents that show legal name and date of birth
  • Corrective lenses if they are needed for the vision test
  • The original Indian driving licence if claiming foreign experience
  • Any accepted translation, authentication letter or driving record requested for the foreign-experience claim
  • A payment method accepted by the centre

Photocopies are not accepted for many identity-document purposes. Review the acceptable identity documents before travelling.

Driving conditions after passing G1

  • Maintain zero blood-alcohol concentration while driving.
  • Drive with a qualified accompanying driver seated beside you.
  • Do not drive between midnight and 5 a.m.
  • Do not use restricted 400-series highways or specified high-speed expressways unless the licensed driving-instructor exception applies.
  • Carry only as many passengers as there are working seatbelts.
  • Complete the required waiting period before the G2 road test unless an approved course or verified experience changes that earlier stage.

The conditions are explained on Ontario’s G1, G2 and G licensing rules. A foreign-experience credit does not turn a G1 licence into a full licence and does not remove the G2-to-G waiting period introduced in the July 1, 2026 non-reciprocal-credit rules.
