What is the minimum age to apply for a G1 license in Ontario?

The minimum age to apply for a G1 license in Ontario is 16 years old. This is the starting point for new drivers in the graduated licensing system. The G1 license is designed for individuals who are beginning their journey towards becoming a fully licensed driver. It allows them to learn the rules of the road and practice their driving skills under specific conditions, such as being accompanied by an experienced driver. This system emphasizes safety and gradual exposure to driving, which is crucial for developing competent driving skills.

The other age options do not align with Ontario's licensing regulations, as 15 years old is too young to apply, and ages 18 and 20 do not reflect the starting age for learner drivers.
