Getting ready to drive and settle in Vancouver BC Canada
Welcome to our online event. Let's Join Drive Treck Driving Academy for a 1-hour community information session designed to help newcomers settle confidently in Vancouver, BC. Learn about local driving laws, ICBC licensing requirements, and key safety practices that differ from your home country.
Settling in a new country can be both exciting and stressful. In Vancouver, one of the first steps toward independence and stability is learning how to drive safely. Driving not only helps you get around and support your family’s daily needs — it’s also a key part of feeling truly at home in Canada. However, Vancouver’s roads can feel quite different from those in many other countries. Speed limits may be higher, traffic often moves faster, and roadways are wider with fewer slow zones. Understanding these differences early helps newcomers stay safe, avoid costly mistakes, and protect themselves and their loved ones on the road.
This session goes beyond traffic signs — we’ll cover real-life driving expectations, road safety culture, and practical tips for everyday life in Vancouver. Whether you’re preparing for your Class 7/ Class 4/ Class 5 road test, or simply want to understand Canadian road etiquette, this session provides clear guidance from ICBC-certified instructors.
Stay after for a 30-minute Q&A, where you can ask questions about driving in Metro Vancouver.
