Driver Experience Log
It is recommended that at least 60 hours of driving
experience be completed prior to scheduling an appointment for the
road test. If you are taking an GLP-approved driver education course and wish to have the waiting period reduced, it is a requirement that you obtain a minimum 60 hours of driving experience. Your driving experience must be properly recorded on a Driver Experience Log
form and this form must be handed in to your driver training school
before they will issue a Declaration of Completion for your course.
Keep track of your practice time with the
Driver
Experience Log.
