Prepare for the Ontario G1 test online
Use this free G1 practice test for Ontario to work through road signs and road rules before your knowledge test. Start a short practice session, read the explanation after each answer and return to topics you find difficult. Practice results help you plan your study; they do not guarantee a pass on the official test.
What should I study for G1?
Build your preparation around the official Ontario Driver’s Handbook. Review signs and pavement markings, right-of-way, intersections, safe following distance and sharing the road. Then study G1 licence restrictions, demerit points and penalties. The linked road-sign and road-rule guides let you focus on each topic before trying another quiz.
How to use your practice results
After a G1 practice session, review incorrect answers and explain to yourself why the correct answer applies. Study the relevant rule or sign, then try another session. Mix topics when you feel ready, so you learn to recognise the situation rather than remember the order of answers.
Can I practise G1 in another language?
Get G1 Ready offers 11 study languages, including English and Arabic. Choose your language in the practice app to study explanations and questions. The language options here describe this study website; check DriveTest for official test arrangements.
Is this the official G1 test?
No. This is independent practice material to support your preparation. You cannot obtain a licence or complete the official knowledge test through this website. Use Ontario and DriveTest sources to confirm current official requirements.
Get G1 Ready is an independent study tool. Its questions are practice material and are not copied or leaked government exam questions.
