It’s no secret that taking your road tests can be stressful, especially in Brampton. Whether you’ve just turned 16 or stealthily procrastinated it well into your 20s — getting a license is a rite of passage most people will experience eventually. The GTA is notorious for having some of the toughest drivers test centres across Ontario. If you’re willing to travel though, you can increase your odds of nailing it the first time around.
