H.T.A
Section 31 A & B A. The privilege
of driving on a highway is granted to, and retained
by, only those
persons who demonstrate that they
are likely to drive safe.
B. Full driving privileges are granted to novice
and probationary drivers only after
they acquire experience and develop
or improve safe driving skills in controlled
manners.
To ensure the safety of all
roads-users, Ontario began using the Graduated Licensing
System (GLS). The Graduated Licensing System is a three
step approach to obtaining the privilege of driving.
