Ontario · G1 test
Start with the free Official MTO Driver’s Handbook on ontario.ca. Every G1 question is based on it. If you want more practice, the apps and websites below are the ones Ontario learners actually use. We checked each one’s price, what’s free and its ratings in October 2026.
Every G1 question is based on this. The chapters on getting your licence, safe driving, signs and lights, and keeping your licence cover what the test asks. There’s no official PDF, but the one-page version prints or saves easily. It’s also in French.

The ministry’s own sample, in the same four-option format as the real test. It’s short, so use it to get a feel for the style rather than as your main practice.

This one chapter is the whole signs section of the test. It shows each sign with what it means, plus traffic lights, pedestrian signals and pavement markings.

The most-rated G1 app by far: 4.7 stars from about 42,000 ratings on the App Store, and 4.7 from about 9,800 reviews on Google Play. It has an exam simulator and a bank that re-asks the questions you miss. Watch the price: alongside the 7-day and 30-day passes there are weekly and monthly subscriptions.

Lots of channels go through G1 signs and questions out loud. Handy if you learn better by watching. They’re unofficial, so check anything surprising against the handbook.

These courses are mostly about the driving, not the written test. They run at least 40 hours, with 20 in class and 10 in the car. Finish one and you can take your G2 road test after 8 months instead of 12. Some insurers give a discount too. Check that a school is approved, not on the revoked list.
