The Best Driver Training in Canada

Our Cobourg location is owned and operated by Norm & Joanne Bailey and Bob & Nicole MacDonald.

Our Cobourg students are taught within the Cobourg town limits and scheduled by our offices in Peterborough. Our Peterborough administration office is conveniently located at 637 The Queensway, Unit 10, at the corner of The Queensway and The Queensway Court just off the Parkway and around the corner from the DriveTest Centre. We're located on the street level of our plaza across the street from Pete’s Auto Body and Sterling Pools.  

We invite you to visit us at our Peterborough office Monday to Friday 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Young Drivers of Canada's Cobourg instructors will provide you with the confidence to drive defensively and pass your driving test. Young Drivers offers beginner driver education courses to help you pass your driver's license test, teach you how to avoid collisions, as well as providing defensive driving training. As one of Canada’s top driving schools, we believe that your driving lessons have to include emergency maneuvers and techniques to prevent the consequences of distracted driving.

G1 licence holders upon successful course completion may be able to qualify for a 4-month reduction in the 12-month minimum G1-licensing period. Qualified Young Drivers graduates can also potentially benefit from a potential reduction in insurance premiums.

No Other Driving School Offers Better Insurance Savings

Young Drivers driving courses will also save on car insurance. When you get your drivers license no other driving school can offer better insurance savings than Young Drivers of Canada. Speak with a Young Drivers of Canada team representative for more details.

“Young Drivers of Canada was the only school I considered for my brother, since having been a student of YD myself when I became licensed. I wanted him to have an excellent foundation and to build good habits from the start. To this day, I’ve retained many of the habits that I learned in the class portion of the program which I was able to reinforce during my my brother’s practice driving sessions – and it was a great refresher for me as well. We had an excellent experience from start to finish. The management and service at the Cobourg/Peterborough chapter were exceptional. Bob is always so pleasant, knowledgeable and above and beyond accommodating. I would recommend Young Drivers to anyone getting their driver’s licence, especially to any parent choosing a driving school – your decision will give you peace of mind.”
