Besides freedom and independence, driving comes with significant responsibility. Equipping ourselves and our youth with the skills to operate vehicles diligently ensures safer and happier experiences on the road for everyone. In preparation for your return to a safe LEARN TO DRIVE experience, DriveWise has implemented a number of countermeasures and.

I had two mock road tests with Kevin 3 days before my road test in Victoria - which I passed also. As I am a Vancouverite, I wanted a local.

Arthur & Pat Harris have owned and operated driver training centers throughout British Columbia since 1975. They have always offered the best driver training programs available on the market, and previously operated as a franchisee of the premier branded driver training company across Canada - until they discovered the DriveWise training program, and they haven't looked back!
DriveWise Bc is proud to be the first Driver Instructor Training Facility in BC to offer the new and in depth GLP Practical Instructor Training Course Approved by ICBC. This Course will provide you with the tools, skills and knowledge to excel in the field of Driver Education. As one of BC's leading driving schools, DriveWise BC has a wealth of experience to offer those who want to embark on a new career.
DriveWise has remained the most popular brand in driver training across Canada for many years. With all of our experience, we are able to bring our students a more updated curriculum, the latest technology, and excellent customer service. In fact, we have won many awards for being the best at what we do and we can't wait to show YOU!
Whether you are a new or experienced driver, the Driving Simulator can help prepare you for unexpected situations, before actually getting on the road. Using the simulator not only gives drivers realistic visual scenarios, but allows them to physically experience wheel resistance and the feel of braking.
DriveWise recommends beginning our program as soon after your new driver receives his/her "L" so we can begin to teach proper techniques and steering methods. Graduated Licensing is meant to be a "graduated" approach to learning to drive. Try not to do all the driving during the last month before their road test.

My daughter had given up learning to drive but agreed to try a lesson with Shane. He was amazing - put her at ease, boosted her confidence and got her back in the drivers seat. She got her N today and I can honestly say Shane was a huge part of that.

I'm more than half way through the overall course and am very satisfied. The class instructor was very helpful in answering any question I had. The simulated driving was a great way to get used to driving before I started the physical driving lessons. The driving lesson instructor has been going above and beyond to not only teach me basic driving skills but to also prepare me for when I will start driving for the moving company that I'm presently a swamper for. The administration were extremely helpful in scheduling driving lessons that fit my very busy 6 day a week work schedule and booking me

Great experience with Duncan as my instructor. I had a lesson 2 days before my N test(which I passed!), and we went over what to expect during the test. Very good explaining and communication, and easy to talk to.
Thank You, Aidan :)

All around AMAZING experience. Ken made sure I was ready and confident going into my road test. I have never met such a careing driving instructor. Ken cares about every one of his students and will except nothing more than a pass. Nothing but positive things to say about my experience.

Andrew was an excellent instructor for my son, Hayden. He was patient and had a calm manner. My son also really enjoyed his sense of humour. I'll be requesting Andrew in 2 years time when it's my daughters turn. Hayden passed his N on his first try! I would definitely recommend Andrew as well has having the 'warm up' lesson the hour before taking the actual N test. Thank you DriveWise BC!

I would highly recommend Drivewise for ALL new drivers, not just young adults. My 2 instructors were Jen for in class and Kevin for in car!! They are amazing instructors. The knowledge, patience they show and have makes the learning to drive less stressful (well kind of ). In all seriousness though, I definitely recommend Drivewise, and I did my research before choosing. This company I cannot Rave enough about!!
This is the #1 company in my eyes.
Thank you so much Jen and Kevin

We are so pleased that we decided to book the Full Driving Program (classroom theory as well as practical road lessons) for our daughter - who passed her driver test today on her first attempt! We've been impressed not only with the quality and comprehensiveness of the program, but also with the level of commitment and communication from the instructors and administrative staff. In particular, we want to give a special shout-out to our daughter's driving instructor Lloyd Ralph, whose dedication and level of lesson preparation was evident from the first, which added greatly to our daughter's learning

I can't recommend Ken enough, he was such a wonderful driving instructor to work with. He made me feel so much more confident going into my N test and completely put my mind at ease. He's very knowledgeable and a really lovely guy to chat with too!

Duncan was an excellent instructor! Supportive, calm and knowledgeable. And available pretty much anytime outside of instruction to answer any questions. Thank you! It was a pleasure dealing with the office staff as well. Courteous, helpful, and prompt with scheduling. Both daughters went through their programs and were successful. We would recommend 100%!

I took several lessons with DriveWise while preparing for my road test. My instructor, Jeremy, was a very kind, sociable, and helpful instructor. He was very friendly and he helped me manage and overcome some of my driving anxiety. I appreciated his sociability and patience during the lessons. He also helped me review and understand the areas I had problems in. Despite my considerable anxiety his lessons helped me pass the road test. It was a positive and beneficial experience.
