Suggested Pick Up & Drop Off Locations For Class 4, 5 and 7 Clients

We can Pick Up & Drop Off students at their homes but, to give our Class 4, 5 and 7 students maximum instruction time in the kinds of traffic conditions they will face on their Road Tests, we also suggest students consider these Pick Up & Drop Off locations:

Duncan & the Cowichan Valley

Tim Horton’s Parking Lot, Trunk Road, Duncan

Lee’s Chicken Parking Lot, Trunk Road, Duncan

The Tom Horton’s and Lee’s Chicken location on Trunk Road are adjacent to each other and are centrally located near downtown Duncan and the Trans Canada Highway so we can spend the maximum amount of lesson time in the kinds of traffic conditions and scenarios which students will best learn from and which students will face on their Road Tests.

Ladysmith

We can do home Pick Up and Drop Off for most Ladysmith students but we also suggest that students might want to consider meeting at the Big O Tire location, 840 1st Avenue, in downtown Ladysmith.

Meeting at this location gives students more lesson and instruction time in the kinds of road and traffic conditions they will be facing on their Road Tests and in typical driving situations.


We also suggest that our Ladysmith students may want to consider taking some, or all, of their lessons in Duncan or Nanaimo since those are the nearest Road Test locations to Ladysmith. Ladysmith simply does not offer enough traffic lights. major intersections or other traffic conditions that will be encountered on Road Tests.

For Ladysmith students wanting to take lessons in Nanaimo we suggest Pick Up & Drop Off at the Rona parking lot, 1250 Island Highway, Nanaimo. This location is near downtown Nanaimo so we can spend most of the lesson time in the kind of downtown traffic conditions students will face in typical city driving and on their Road Tests.

Nanaimo

We can offer Pick Up & Drop Off at home for most of our Nanaimo students but we suggest that Nanaimo students may also consider Pick Up & Drop Off at these locations:

Rona parking lot, 1250 Island Highway, Nanaimo. This location is near downtown Nanaimo so we can spend most of the lesson time in the kind of downtown traffic conditions students will face in typical city driving and on their Road Tests.

Chapters parking lot, Woodgrove Center, 6670 Mary Ellen Drive, Nanaimo. This location is close to the Nanaimo ICBC Road testing facility and maximizes students’ lesson and instruction time in areas featuring the the the kinds of conditions they will typically face in city driving and on their Road Test.

Parksville & Qualicum

We suggest that students from Parksville and Qualicum meet us at the Chapters parking lot, Woodgrove Center, 6670 Mary Ellen Drive, Nanaimo.

This location is close to the Nanaimo ICBC Road testing facility and maximizes students’ lesson and instruction time in areas featuring the the the kinds of conditions they will typically face in city driving and on their Road Test.
