The shape of the licence in New Brunswick

Every jurisdiction in Canada runs a graduated path of this shape. The class codes, the hold periods and the conditions attached to each stage differ here, and they stay off this page until each one can be traced to Service New Brunswick.

  1. Learner, Learner stage

    The first stage. You pass a knowledge test on road signs and road rules at Service New Brunswick, then drive with a qualified supervising driver in the car with you.

  2. Intermediate, Intermediate stage

    You pass a road test and drive without a supervisor, under conditions that stay attached to the licence for the length of the stage.

  3. Full, Full licence

    The last stage. The graduated conditions come off and you hold a full passenger vehicle licence.

What you can use in the meantime

The rules of the road overlap a good deal across the country, so the practice is still worth sitting. The numbers and the penalties in it are theirs rather than New Brunswick's.
