  1. What must a Stage 2 Intermediate driver do to obtain a full Stage 3 (Full) license?

    Answer: Pass a second road skills test after holding Stage 2 for at least 15 months

    To earn a full Stage 3 license, the driver must hold the Stage 2 license for at least 15 months and then pass a second, more comprehensive road skills test.

  2. What is the earliest possible total time to complete all three stages of Manitoba's GDL program?

    Answer: 24 months

    The minimum time is 9 months in Stage 1 plus 15 months in Stage 2, totalling 24 months (2 years) before a driver can qualify for a full Stage 3 license.

  3. Which restriction is lifted when a driver earns a full Stage 3 license?

    Answer: They are no longer subject to zero BAC, late-night curfews, or passenger limits from earlier stages

    Stage 3 (Full) license holders are no longer subject to the zero BAC requirement, late-night driving curfews, or passenger restrictions imposed during Stages 1 and 2.

  4. Can a learner's permit (Stage 1) holder drive on a Manitoba highway unaccompanied?

    Answer: No — a Stage 1 driver must always be supervised by a qualifying driver

    Stage 1 learner's permit holders must always have a qualifying supervisor in the front passenger seat regardless of road type, including highways.

  5. What is the primary purpose of Manitoba's Graduated Driver Licensing program?

    Answer: To gradually introduce new drivers to increasingly complex driving situations while reducing crash risk

    The GDL program is designed to reduce collisions among new drivers by gradually exposing them to more complex and higher-risk driving situations as their skills develop.

  6. After the first 9 months of Stage 2, which passenger restriction is removed for Intermediate license holders?

    Answer: The limit of one under-21 non-family passenger is lifted

    After completing the first 9 months of Stage 2, the restriction limiting non-family passengers under 21 to one person is removed, allowing normal passenger loads.

  7. Which of the following correctly describes a key difference between Stage 2 and Stage 3 driving privileges in Manitoba?

    Answer: Stage 2 drivers face zero BAC and late-night curfews; Stage 3 drivers do not

    The most significant differences are that Stage 2 drivers must maintain zero BAC and (in the first 9 months) observe a midnight-to-5-AM curfew and passenger limits — none of which apply to Stage 3 drivers.
