We suggest you start your driving course 2 to 3 months before you reach 16 years old. This way, you will be able to get your license on your 16th birthday and complete your driving school in the fastest way possible.
The fastest way to get your license is 13 months. More precisely, you get to complete 10 hours of theory classes (5 courses) before you reach 16 years old, then get your learner's license on your birthday to start the 12 months learning period before you can pass your driving exam.
In total, you will have 3 different exams. The first one is done with us! You will need to succeed a first theory exam in order to get your attestation proving you completed the first part of your course. You will then go to the SAAQ at 16 years old and get your learner's license. Once you have your learner's license, give us a call so we can start your driving courses! Note that you will need to be with an experienced driver in order to drive a car (we will explain all the requirements in your fifth theory class, so listen carefully!) The second one is another theory exam. This one is done at the SAAQ once you have complete 10 months with your learner's license. You need to pass this exam in order to be allowed to schedule your driving exam, so don't wait before you do! The third and final exam in your driving exam. This one is done in-car at the SAAQ. Rigaud Driving School can rent you a car if needed, or you can have a look at the SAAQ website to verify if your own specifications needed to be used for your exam. Once your Driving exam is complete, you will be able to drive by yourself!
If you don't have a car for your driving exam, you can contact us to rent one. This will allow you to take your exam with the same car that you've learned in. It will boost your confidence, for sure!
