Your road test at the Hamilton DriveTest Centre
Hamilton-area drivers can start the MTO-approved BDE course online and book a Driviology car for their road test at the Hamilton DriveTest centre. Every price is the full price including HST — the same total the registration form shows before you commit.
The centre
The Hamilton DriveTest centre is at 370 Kenora Ave, Hamilton, ON L8E 2W2. It conducts G2 and G road tests for drivers in Hamilton. This page is Driviology's guide to using our road-test car rental at this centre — for test booking itself, see Road Test Booking, and for general preparation, DriveTest Centre Tips.
Road-test car rental at this centre — $226.00
Rent a fully insured, automatic, dual-control Driviology training vehicle for your G2 or G test at Hamilton: $226.00 including HST. For most centres you meet the instructor and the car at the DriveTest centre or a nearby pickup point, confirmed with you before your test. A short pre-test familiarization with the vehicle is available where scheduling allows. Using a familiar training vehicle can reduce test-day uncertainty, but vehicle rental does not guarantee a passing result.

Questions drivers ask us
How much is it to rent a car for my road test at Hamilton?
$226.00 including HST. That is the full total — the same figure the registration form shows before you commit. The rental is a fully insured, automatic, dual-control Driviology training vehicle reserved for your scheduled test.
Where do I meet the car at the Hamilton DriveTest centre?
For most centres you meet the instructor and the car at the DriveTest centre (370 Kenora Ave, Hamilton) or a nearby pickup point. Your exact meeting point is confirmed with you before your test day.
What should I bring on test day?
Your driver's licence and any documents your appointment requires. Arrive at the centre 15–20 minutes before your appointment time so there is no rushing before you start.
Can I practise in the car before my test starts?
A short familiarization with the vehicle is available where scheduling allows, and a pre-test warm-up lesson can be booked for the morning of your test. Ask when you register and we will set it up if time permits.
Does renting the car guarantee I will pass?
No — and be wary of anyone who promises that. The examiner decides the result. What the rental does is remove the vehicle from your list of worries: insured, automatic, dual-control, and familiar before you start.
