Local tips

Tofino's road tests are booked through Westland Insurance at 101-368 Main Street, which is open Tuesday to Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and closed Mondays and weekends. Road tests are by appointment. The George Hubert Memorial Fire Hall is about 140 m away and Tofino General Hospital about 365 m, so be ready to pull to the right and stop for emergency vehicles. Child-care centres sit about 260 m and 370 m away and Wickaninnish Community School about 450 m, so watch for young children on weekdays. Map data counts 47 stop signs and 35 marked crosswalks nearby, so expect lots of full stops and people on foot. Campbell Street (BC 4), about 105 m away, is posted at 50 km/h. Our 6.4 km practice route is compact: Main Street and Third Street to Campbell Street, out to Industrial Way and back, then Gibson Street, Third Street, Second Street and Main Street again. Use it to practice full stops behind the line and scanning each crosswalk before you go.

Common questions

Tofino road test FAQ

What are the hours at Tofino?

ICBC lists: Tue–Fri 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Road tests by appointment. Check icbc.com before you go, especially around holidays.

How do I book a road test?

Book online at icbc.com (Book a road test), or call 604-982-2250 in Metro Vancouver, 250-978-8300 in Victoria, or 1-800-950-1498 toll-free; in other areas you can also contact the nearest driver licensing office. You pay the road test fee when you arrive. Cancel or reschedule at least 48 hours ahead, or you'll be charged a $25 fee.

What do I need to bring?

Arrive 15 minutes early with the same ID you used for your learner's licence (one primary and one secondary piece), your learner's licence, payment for the road test fee, and a safe, reliable, insured vehicle with a Canadian licence plate and its registration papers. GPS and navigation must be off, and recording devices aren't allowed during the test.

When can I take the road test, and is there a second test?

New drivers take the Class 7 road test to move from the learner (L) licence to the novice (N) licence; the earliest date you can take it is printed on your licence. Since October 19, 2026, drivers with a novice licence and a clean record no longer take a second road test: a Driving Record Assessment replaces it.

Is a practice route available for Tofino?
