Man! I'm being flooded with so much information
I plan on studying the ICBC driver's manual before I turn 16. I will learn more about driving and better understand the regulations and laws by reading the manual. To better prepare myself, I will also take a practice test.

ICBC
The knowledge test wasn't bad at all!
How was the test, son? Tell me what you learned.
I learned that you must display a red 'L' sign on the back of the vehicle. And can carry only one passenger besides the supervisor.
Since turning 16, I have felt confident about taking the ICBC knowledge test because I've put a lot of effort into studying. Once I complete and pass the test, I will hold a learner's permit for approximately one year. During this time, I will be allowed to drive only when accompanied by a certified supervisor and with one passenger who is over 25 and possesses a valid driver's license.

Once I have completed one year of supervised driving practice with my father, I will start preparing for the class 7 road test to obtain my N license. With my N license, I can have one passenger while driving, unless I am with family members. In that case, I can drive as many family members as my vehicle can fit.

ICBC
Remember. There are no time restrictions for driving. We must maintain a zero blood alcohol level. No use of electronic devices, even hands-free. And display the N at the back of the car!
I feel nervous, but I 've done tons of practice and studying, I've got this!
After I finish studying for my class 7 road test one year after I've received my L. I will return to ICBC to take the class 7 road test in order to obtain an N license

Now I'm finally able to drive alone! No more supervision!!!!
After passing the class 7 road test, I've acquired an N license and therefore can drive without supervision, however, only after practicing safe driving for 2 years can I take the class 5 road test which allows me to achieve my full legal driver's license without any restrictions.

Finally! With my BC's driver license I have no more restrictions! This journey has taught me that safe driving is really important!
Passing my class 5 road test would result in an unrestricted British Columbia driver's license, and all of my hard work and devotion would have paid off. Now I can drive entirely independently, with no restrictions.

Must maintain a zero blood alcohol level. Don't go on your cellphone when driving. I'll keep that in mind.
Great job!
Thanks dad! It's been 12 months since I've gotten my L and I think I'm ready for the class 7 road test!
