Covid-19 Update

First Route Driving School will be closed effective April 3, 2021 until July 2nd, 2021 due to the provincial shutdown. According to the Provincial Reopening Framework, we will be part of the stage 2 reopening. Despite Road Tests occurring during Phase 1, we are not permitted to instruct any students in-vehicle. During this time we will continue to offer our online BDE program, while in-car instruction is cancelled. We do apologize for the inconvenience our students may face with delays, and as lessons resume, priority will be given in registration order to past students who have completed their online course work.

Excellent driving school! Tony was our son’s driving instructor, very knowledgeable and friendly. Our daughter went to another driver’s ed and the difference was unbelievable. She booked a one hour private lesson with Tony prior to her G license test and came back saying she learned more in that hour with Tony then she did throughout the entire driver’s ed course she took elsewhere. I would highly recommend First Route!

This course was one of the cheaper courses available in my area, and yet I found they more than exceeded my expectations. The classes were made fun and very informative, for both the teenagers and adults taking the course. My driver instructor, Brandon, was very calm, very patient, and talked me through everything that I needed to know. I was very anxious to start driving, and through the in class and driving lessons I have become more comfortable driving. I have, and will continue to, recommend this course to anyone looking for a driving course.
