Drivers from certain countries may be eligible to obtain an Ontario driver’s license without taking a driving test. These countries have driving agreements with Canada, allowing drivers to directly obtain a G class license.
Situation for Drivers from Turkey
Since Turkey is not among the countries with a driving agreement with Canada, drivers from Turkey must take the driving tests in Ontario. However, based on your driving experience in Turkey, you may be eligible to apply for a G2 or G license.
These agreements are made because the driving training in certain countries is considered to be of similar standards to Canada, allowing drivers to obtain a license without an additional test.
