Prince Edward Island Class 7 Knowledge Test Practice 2026

Prince Edward Island's knowledge test is administered by Access PEI, the provincial service centre network. The test covers traffic laws, safe driving practices and recognition of standard road signs, and you can take it as a written or an oral test. PEI publishes no pass mark and no question count. The test is given on a computer at any of the province's Access PEI locations.

PEI's GDL has three stages before the full licence: Stage 1, the Instruction Permit (Class 7), then Stage 2 and Stage 3 on a Class 5. You wait 365 days on the Instruction Permit (275 days if enrolled in driver education) and complete the Novice Driver Course before your road test. Stage 2 and Stage 3 last at least a year each, with no further road test.

With an Instruction Permit you drive only when a licensed driver who has held a licence for at least four years, with a blood alcohol count under 0.05, sits beside you; the only passengers allowed are that person and their immediate family, and the vehicle displays a yellow L decal. GDL drivers must have zero blood alcohol and may not use handheld communication devices. Stage 1 drivers under 21 may not drive between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m., and Stage 2 drivers may not drive in those hours unless accompanied by a fully licensed driver. In Stage 2 you may carry one passenger from outside your immediate family; in Stage 3, passengers are limited to the number of seatbelts.

The handbook covers the standard topics, including winter hazards such as bridges that ice up before the rest of the road.

A first offence for using a hand-held device while driving carries a fine of C$575 to C$1,275 and 5 demerit points. While you are in the GDL program, a conviction for not wearing a seatbelt suspends your licence: 30 days for a first offence, 90 days for a second.
