Our Program

Senior Driving Program

At DriveWise Newmarket, we believe safe driving is a lifelong skill. Our Senior Driving Program is specifically designed to help mature drivers refresh essential driving habits, reduce stress, and maintain confidence behind the wheel. Whether you’re renewing your licence or simply want a refresher, our personalized approach ensures you feel comfortable and supported.

LICENSE RENEWAL

MTO Senior Drivers’ Licence Renewal

Once Ontario drivers turn 80, the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) requires a licence renewal every two years. This process includes:

Z

A vision test

Z

A 45-minute group education session

Z

A review of driving record

Z

Possibly a road test

For full details, contact the MTO at 1-800-396-4233. Our instructors can help you prepare for this process and build confidence before your assessment.

Senior Driving refresher

Why Choose A Senior Driving Refresher?

Over time, even the best drivers can benefit from a tune-up on good habits, new road rules, and defensive driving strategies. Our senior-focused in-car sessions provide a supportive environment to rebuild comfort and reinforce safety behind the wheel.

Whether you’re preparing for a licence renewal or simply want to feel more confident navigating today’s roads, we’re here to help, with zero judgment and total support.

My daughter had a fantastic experience with Newmarket Drive Wise. Both her in-class and car instructor were professional and extremely through. She learned many great tips for safe driving, parking, and in preparation for her test. As well, the lady at the front desk is extremely welcoming, accommodating, and very kind. A fantastic experience. We will soon have our other daughter driving and will not hesitate to use them again.
