The Manitoba High School Driver Education Program >
In-Car > In-Car Training
Students must pass the Class 5 Learner’s Licence Written Test and validate their Learner’s Licence before they can begin in-car training.
The in-car curriculum consists of 16 hours of instruction: eight hours of behind-the-wheel-training and eight hours of observation, covering the following topics:
| Preparing to Drive | Driving on Curves & Slopes |
| Driving Straight Roads | Backing |
| Braking and Stopping | Parking |
| Yielding | Commentary Driving |
| Turning | Highway Driving |
| Lane Changing & Merging | Responsibility |
After Lesson 4, the in-car instructor completes an In-Car Interim Report which indicates the student’s driving progress and identifies areas requiring extra practice. The student brings this report home for the parent/guardian to review and sign. This signed report must be returned to the in-car instructor at the start of the fifth driving lesson.
In Lesson 7, the instructor fills out a Practice Guide to help prepare the student for the final in-car evaluation.
After Lesson 8, the in-car instructor completes an In-Car Final Report that indicates whether or not the student successfully met Driver Education in-car standards.
If a student did not meet the in-car standards, the student will not receive a Driver Education Certificate.
