Young Drivers of Canada - Richmond Hill

Young Drivers Provides The Best Training Possible

Our family-owned driving school franchise was established in 1981. Allen MacDonald is the third generation to provide the Young Drivers driver training program (est. 1968) to York Region residents. Only Young Drivers teaches the four habits and twenty sub-habits of the exclusive Collisionfree!™ Approach to driving.

Only Young Drivers offers convenient monthly payments at no additional charge (email for details). If you went to another driving school or failed your road test, or if you are just not feeling confident behind the wheel, we can help. We also offer our unique “Flex-Schedule” in class (email for details). We are pleased to offer our King City students pick up at home or school for in-car lessons.

By using the YD Collisionfree!™ Approach and it's 20 sub-habits, each student can learn to deal with situations as they arise. Remember, on a day-to-day basis, the most dangerous thing most of us will do is get into a motor vehicle. Using the YD Collisionfree!™ approach will greatly lessen that danger for everyone on the road.

Enrol Today, Start Today!

You can sign up for one of our evening, weekend or four-day courses and start the online e-learning program before class begins. Our courses dates are flexible to fit into your busy schedules. If a course date does not work for you, just call our office and we will be happy to find a course that fits your needs (even if it means choosing dates from two separate courses). At Young Drivers, we have a variety of courses packages starting from our full course to our road test and plus packages. Our driving instructors have experience with drivers of all ages and abilities including seniors drivers and students who have never been behind the wheel. Payment plans are available upon request.

“Young drivers offers great preparation for the G2 driving test. The classroom and in car lessons were both very helpful and I wouldn't have felt comfortable taking my test without the help of instructors!”

Andrea Chang

“I had a great experience with Young Drivers both in the classroom and during my in-car lessons. Dan was a dedicated and friendly driving instructor for the past few months, and because of him I was able to pass my G2 on my first try today. He would answer any of my questions, and also gave great tips on how I could improve in my own time. The scheduling process was straight-forward and flexible, which made it very easy to prepare for the test. I would highly recommend Young Drivers to anyone looking for a thorough and enjoyable experience learning how to drive.”
