Leaf licenses
I came across www.reddit.com/r/Ontariodrivetest/ and it's hilarious how bad these drivers are. I've never heard anyone struggle with drivers tests anywhere and everyone has a drivers license so I don't really understand.
It looks like there are 3 different license tests G1/G2/G, in total you do a multiple choice test and 30min of driving across 2 more tests.
G1
This is a multiple choice test about signs and you have to be to fail and once you pass you are allowed to drive with a buddy and not on highways.
try it for yourself: https://www.g1.ca/g1-practice-test/
G2
This is a driving test and you need to 3 point turn, park and drive around the block, once you pass you can drive alone
G
Another driving test, you need to show you can change lanes and drive on the highway, once you pass you have a full license and never have to take the tests again

Reddit Drivers
let's see how reddit copes with these easy tests.
1. Advice needed: My friend failed her G test for speeding (going 100km/h) on the 401. Please see comments for details.
how could she possibly fail after speeding and being told 3x
2. Passed G2 test after six attempts
I'm living proof around here that if you keep trying and keep practicing driving, you'll get it eventually. Just days ago I was beyond stressed and scared the night before my test. I thought I would fail again. I hate driving because I'm cautious and a lot of things about driving I'm bad at. I live in a rural area, so it was difficult to convince my father to go into the city for practice… Especially worse when I moved out for school. However, even though I hadn't driven in weeks until preparation for my sixth attempt on the test: I was able to drive like the back of my hand for the most part. I think I owe it all to how many times I had to do that test! Now I know how to navigate rural areas easily, and I'm sure now that I can go out on my own: I will master the city. After all, it was enough for me to pass this time! My negative disposition on driving almost vanished the instant I passed the test, actually. Now I want to get my own car. I guess the fails piled up on me, made me think I would never be enough. But I was. Just keep at it, practice, remember the maneuvers, shoulder checks, etc! If I could do it, so can you.
Edit: Trust me, I wouldn't be driving if I didn't have to. It's a necessity where I am unless I want to spend more on rent debt. Just because it took me six attempts doesn't make me a reckless or idiotic driver who will endanger people. Most of the mistakes, especially later on, I made were more just maneuver issues or being too defensive. I know how to drive safely and passing the test should be an indicator of that.
This guy needed 6 tries to pass, he's probably going to kill someone

lol i took a driving test in the philippines and it was start car, drive on this gravel lot around a tree once, park, ok ur cool. dude wasn't in the car or anything, just watched from his little booth.
tbh i felt safer driving there than in the states. i can't recall seeing a single accident in over 3 years there, despite the crazy traffic... and here i see 1-2 a month.
i am actually not sure those tests prove anything really. just regulation for the sake of it.
