2、关于七号牌的说明。
七号牌相当于国内的学习驾照,在没有七号牌之前是不能开车的,有了七号牌就可以在一个持有高级5号牌的司机的陪同下开车了。值得注意的是,七号牌不能单独开车。
获得七号牌的途径,是参加笔试,一共20道题,考试费用约$17。目前在埃德蒙顿,可以到任何一个registry去考试,一般不用预约。埃德蒙顿的Alberta registry agents 请点下面的连接进行查询:

在埃德蒙顿的Alberta registry agents 和一些移民服务机构可以拿到免费的驾驶手册(Basic Licence Driver's Handbook),所有七号牌的试题均出自这本手册。也可以通过这个连接在网上进行学习:

考试通过以后,进行视力检查、照相。视力检查通过之后,签字并另外交费约$67,获得“Interim Operator's Licence”,14天内可以收到正式的Learner's Operate Licence,相当于国内的身份证。
据说中文驾驶手册在永富商场(97Street & 105Ave)一楼书店有卖,10元左右。另外一个地点是世界书局,10655-97 Street,这两个地方离得很近。七号牌考试可以找翻译。“轻松上路”栏目对中文考试已有很多介绍。
如果没有国内驾照,在获得7号牌一年后可以考5号牌,即路试。如果国内驾照已经通过验证,持“Interim Operator's Licence”就可以考5号牌了。
3、关于五号牌的说明
五号牌就是正式驾照了,有了五号牌就可以单独驾车。五号牌分为高级五号牌(Class 5)和初级五号牌(Class 5 GDL)两种,后者与前者的区别主要是驾车时酒精含量为零、不能教7号牌的人开车等。
五号牌考试扣分不超过75分即通过,考分标准请参考:

可以自己打电话预约考官,也可以让驾校的教练帮助约考官。高级五号牌的考官目前只有8人,姓名和电话请看(

4、国内驾照
如果有国内驾照,在获得7号牌后可以马上考5号牌。如果国内驾照不到2年,可以考GDL 5号牌;如果国内驾照超过2年,可以考高级5号牌。如果registry的说法与此不同,说明具体办事的人不懂政策,可换一家registry。
国内驾照需要公证,并通过认证才可以考5号牌,国内驾照将被收回。具体办法请在“轻松上路”栏目查询。
5、其他省份的驾照
加拿大其他省份的驾照可以在registry进行同级别更换,不必重新考试。正式驾照两年以下经验,更换GDL 5号牌;正式驾照两年以上经验,更换高级5号牌。如果在其他省份仅仅通过了笔试,可以更换阿省的7号牌。换驾照带着原来的驾照和钱就行了。换驾照的地点可以在下面任意一个地方:

6、关于驾校
埃德蒙顿有多家中文驾校和西人驾校。在驾校学习可以获得保险课证书,减免汽车保费。驾校的课程包括10个小时上路和15个小时的保险课。如果没有上过驾校而获得了5号牌,此时再学保险课将包括6个小时上路和15个小时的保险课,学费将相应降低。对于新手来说,如果开车不够熟练应“补钟”,即额外增加几小时的上路联系。如果你在路试过程中没有任何错误而考官不让你通过,你可以向有关部门进行投诉,考官将失去资格。考试的时候可以租考官的车,或者租教练的车,也可以请有5号牌的朋友到租车公司租车。还有一个办法是借用朋友的车,请朋友把车开到考场,留下车的注册信息和保险单给考官(考试期间你的朋友不能坐在车上)。
