Information related to driver's licences.
I was approached by a friend whose teenager had just been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. She had discovered that some driving schools offered specific driver training for new drivers that suffered from the disease. Was I aware of any driving school that offered a course like this in our part of British Columbia?
Frank Potestio added four hazardous moving violations and one fail to wear seatbelt violation to his driving record between August 29, 2009 to May 9, 2011.

It's drivers licence renewal time. You organize and drop by the nearest ICBC Driver Service Center to pay your renewal fee, have your picture taken and leave with your temporary new licence with the promise that you will receive your picture licence in them mail shortly. For most of us, that's the scenario.
My sister will be coming to Vancouver to visit me from Serbia. She has a valid Serbian driving license, but no insurance (she currently doesn’t own a car). I have a valid BC (ICBC) insurance on my vehicle, and a valid BC driver’s license. Will she be able to drive my car? Does she need to buy some additional insurance for driving my car, or will my insurance cover any damage in case of an accident?
I am inquiring about my learners permit. I live in Courtenay and have a valid learner's licence from Alberta. Can I switch it over to a BC learners permit? In the meantime can I drive here with it as long as I have an L on my vehicle?
I got my first speeding ticket a couple of weeks ago while still on my N. When I first got my N, I was told that the earliest month that I would be able to take the Class 5 test was May or June of this year. However, how will this speeding ticket affect my insurance, driving record, and my right to take the Class 5 test as scheduled? (Other than a couple of parking tickets, my driving record is clean).
In my current position I come across a large number of drivers who seem to live in British Columbia but have Alberta licence plates and insurance. The story goes that the driver works in Alberta and commutes back to British Columbia on their days off. Most of the time the family lives full time in BC, kids attend a BC school etc.
Hi there, I currently have an Alberta L, that is going to expire soon. I just moved to B.C and am planning on staying here for some schooling, and am wondering if I am allowed to take a British Columbia N drivers test without retaking my L? Or do I have to take my Alberta license and transfer it over?
My mother learned to drive on the prairies as a teenager. She paid her two dollars, was given a driver's licence and then learned to drive. I learned in my teens as well, studying the driving guide, took a twenty question test, spent some time as a learner, passed a 20 minute road test and I had my licence.
When you receive mail from the Superintendent of Motor Vehicles (aka: RoadSafetyBC) it is never a good idea to ignore it. Garret Cole received a driving prohibition notice and did not open the envelope. Shortly after that he was found driving by police and charged. At trial he tried to convince the court that he did not know that he was a prohibited driver.
