Drivers Guide to Vehicle Recalls

Did you know that an estimated 1 in 5 vehicles on Canadian roads have unfixed or open safety recalls? This means they’ve been deemed unfit to drive by their manufacturers! We’re here to clear up any confusion surrounding vehicle recalls; what they are, how to check if your vehicle has any, what to do, and who pays for the fix.

Can You Pass on the Right?

Passing on the right is typically against the law, but there are circumstances where you are legally allowed to pass on the right.  Before we jump into when, where, and why passing on the right is an acceptable roadway maneuver, it’s important to know that any maneuver made on the road should be done safely. Even when you are legally allowed to execute a pass, a turn, or anything else, drivers still need to be safe and aware at all times.

How to Replace a Lost or Stolen Licence Plate or Insurance Decal

Once a licence plate or insurance decal is affixed to a vehicle, many drivers don’t think about them again! It’s just a part of the process when owning and operating a vehicle - getting plates, buying insurance, and getting it registered. Insurance decals and licence plates can go missing after you’ve gone through the entire process, leaving you without these important vehicle identifiers, and they mostly go missing due to theft.

Drivers Guide to Following Distance

Space margins refer to the amount of space between you and other road users, and following distance is something that is measured between you and the vehicle in front of you. Leaving adequate distance within this space plays an important part when utilizing the see-think-do driving strategy. Giving yourself enough following distance means that you will have enough time to see hazards, think about what your options are, and react accordingly. When you follow too closely to road users ahead of you, you may not have enough time to react and respond to hazards or incidents.

"A special “Thank You” to you. From what I was told, you never let my daughter put her guard down. Good for you.

I appreciate all the hard work and dedication you’ve given to my daughter. I will recommend Valley Driving School to as many people as I can.

Again, “Thank You” to everyone. Who knows…maybe my daughter will be back for other types of drivers training ie: motorcycle, standard, or even semi-trucks. Could happen. She ‘loves’ to drive.  

Best regards"
