What is Graduated Licensing? Ontario’s Graduated Licensing System (GLS) allows new drivers to earn full driving privileges in 2 stages. In the first stage, G1/M1 (car or motorcycle) Level 1, drivers learn and practise under conditions that reduce the risk of collision. Once new drivers/riders have gained more experience, they must pass a road test to enter the second stage, G2/M2 Level 2, with more privileges.

At the end of Level 2, a second road test must be passed to earn a full G or M driver’s licence. * Please see G1/G2 and M1/M2 sections for licence conditions and minimum time periods.
