“The program helped me gain confidence and feel more comfortable behind the wheel. Keith was an amazing teacher and taught me the skills in a way that I could best understand. A truly remarkable experience with a true G”
Nolan Coe
“I would highly recommend the Young Divers course. I've become a very confident driver with the help of my instructor Keith. At Young Drivers they walk you through the fundamentals of driving, and teach you to become cautious of other road users. For those who are signing their children into a driving course, or if you are a university of collage student, I would highly recommend YD for that extra confidence boost!”
Jeremy Collins

“I'm glad that I chose yd Waterloo for my drivers ed. The course plan and materials are well structured. The online resources are useful. The in class instructor was well experienced and made the class interactive and interesting. He shared a lot of real life experiences and tips. I had Mr. Keith as my in car instructor. He was always punctual, patient and understanding. He explained safe driving habits and helped me practice the same. Also gave me valuable feedback to practice until next lesson. Also, he clarified all my questions regarding road rules and various scenarios. Overall, I'm a much confident driver now, having transitioned from driving on one side of the road to the other.”
Roshana Subramaniam
“I had Michael G. as my in car instructor and he made the experience incredibly better than it could have been without him. He was always clear with instructions and was constantly asking if I had any questions I needed answering. On top of being supportive while driving, he was also funny and an all around great person to be with during lessons and before the test, reducing most of my anxiety about driving. I would highly recommend Young Drivers as a driving school, especially Michael as your instructor.”

The CogniFit program also includes training to possibly reduce that risk. We also provide in-car assessments that can help seniors understand modern driving techniques or prepare for government re-testing.

We work with clients to help them get behind the wheel again. We work with rehabilitation clinics and occupational therapists across the country providing driver competency assessments and hand controls training in many cities.

Free Online Learner’s Practice Test

If you know someone going for their G1 (learner’s permit) or have a client who could use a rules of the road refresher, please direct them to our website http://www.yd.com to take this free test for a spin.
