In Ontario, there are three stages to the licensing process. These stages include the G1, G2 and G licenses. You earn your G1 license when you pass the written portion and the first stage of the licensing exam. A year later, or shorter if you’ve enrolled in a driver’s education course, candidates are allowed to take the second portion of the licensing exam, the road test. Upon passing this exam, drivers will be awarded a G2 license. After you’ve held your G2 license for a year, you’ll be eligible to take your stage three driving test. After passing this exam, you’ll be awarded a full, unrestricted G license.
