## A check before you buy

DriveTestRoutes.com’s Ontario page says the G2 road test includes an expressway section and a highway driving declaration. Ontario’s [new drivers page](https://www.ontario.ca/page/get-g-drivers-licence-new-drivers) puts highway driving on the **G** road test, and the handbook’s [road test chapter](https://www.ontario.ca/document/official-mto-drivers-handbook/level-two-road-test) puts the highway declaration before the G test’s expressway section. The handbook calls the G test the “Level Two (G2) road test”, an easy name to mix up. [The two tests side by side](https://g2test.ca/vs/g2-vs-g-road-test).

## Who should pick DriveTestRoutes.com

- You learn an area by driving it, and want a set route near your centre to practise on.
- You’re testing at a busy centre in a city you don’t know.
- You’d rather spend $14.99 than risk a $53.75 G2 retest (or $91.25 for the G).
- You’re testing in one of the other provinces it covers.

## Who should pick the free route

- You already drive around your centre, or can: any street nearby is practice.
- You want to know what’s marked rather than where you’ll drive. The [G2 checklist](https://g2test.ca/g2-road-test) and [G checklist](https://g2test.ca/g-road-test) are the examiner’s list in plain words.
- You want someone to watch you drive. A lesson or two with an instructor tells you what a route can’t.
