Lesson Overview
PG Driving For Life Academy Ltd. is committed to teaching students the skills necessary to drive safely, responsibly, and defensively in a comfortable and respectful environment.
We offer a variety of driving lessons in Prince George, with our most popular packages being those in the Graduated Licensing Program (GLP). The GLP includes both in-car and in-classroom instruction, comprehensively teaching students the lifelong skills to drive accident free.
The length of the course allows students to learn throughout a number of seasons with unique driving conditions, provides students with two grade 11 high school credits, and reduces the student’s Class 7N (Novice Stage) by 6 months (if they drive prohibition and accident-free over the course of their Novice Stage.) GST is refundable on GLP Packages AFTER students complete their lessons and provide a copy of their high school transcript displaying the 2 high school credits applied.
We also have Custom Tailored Lesson Packages that provide the flexibility for specialized driving instruction. Packages range from 1 to 50 hours of in-car lessons.
For more guidance on which package to select, please see our Frequently Asked Questions or Contact Us to find the best fit.

Things to Know About Driving Lessons in Prince George
You’ll be learning from professional, experienced, ICBC certified (and just generally awesome to be around) instructors.
In spring and summer months we regularly book a minimum of one month in advance.
Remember to leave ample time for lessons and a Road Test. When building the instruction schedule for a student, we also include the Road Test date and book it with ICBC on behalf of the student (unless the package doesn’t include a road test) – if you’ve already scheduled a Road Test, please let us know when registering.
Please read this ICBC Student Consent and Release Form which the student will be required to sign.
Prior to a Driver Training School booking a Road Test on behalf of a student, the student must provide his or her consent for the school to book a Road Test on the student’s behalf and disclose personal information about that student to ICBC for the purpose of booking a Road Test.
You can pay for lessons online via credit card or offline via cash/cheque/e-transfer. Split-pay is available for most packages if you choose to pay by credit card. Most packages paid in full via cash/cheque/e-transfer are eligible for a 3% discount. Please note that only one discount is applicable per purchase.
If paying by credit card, payment is due when completing the online registration form. If paying by cheque, all payments are due via post-dated cheques at the beginning of the first in-car or in-class lesson (whichever comes first). If paying by cash or e-transfer, payments can be allotted to specific lesson dates. PG Driving For Life Academy Ltd. reserves the right to cancel lessons if payments have not been made. Any cheques returned NSF will be charged a $30 fee, per missed payment, and new payments must be made in cash. Once you complete the registration process, let us know if you require further payment arrangements to be made. If you choose to cancel there is a $120.00 non-refundable deposit due after any lessons, in-classroom or in-car, are completed.
Our prices don’t include GST and are subject to change without notice. ICBC fees are the responsibility of the student and are not included in our prices.
GST will be added during the registration process. We will honour previous PG Driving For Life rates for one month from initial quote.
PG Driving For Life Academy Ltd. Instructors reserve discretion
for road test bookings if a student is identified as being unlikely to pass due to lack of practice, 2 or more missed appointments or any external circumstances not related to PG Driving For Life Academy Ltd. instruction.
We also reserve the right to deny a student use of our vehicles for testing prior to the first ICBC Road Test if we believe the student will not pass. Please refer to FAQ’s for further information about driving lessons in Prince George.

“Recently, I reached out to Chris to see if he would be willing to assist me in facilitating client’s back to driving after serious motor vehicle accidents. I have been contracting Chris as part of a graduated exposure program for clients to improve their independence and comfort in driving activities. He has been an integral part of my client’s functional rehabilitation and they have been incredibly impressed with his supportive and patient approach. In addition, Chris is wonderful to deal with professionally; always courteous, responds promptly and provides invoices/reports in a timely manner. It has been a real pleasure working with Driving For Life and I envision a long, working relationship together in the future. Please Note: The views expressed are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of my employer or professional body.”
