ICBC Knowledge Test: Prepare for Your BC L

Prepare for the BC ICBC knowledge test with study topics, online testing information and Reev's test-prep app for iPhone and Android.

Updated · Editorial Policy

The BC passenger-vehicle knowledge test has 50 multiple-choice questions; you need 40 correct answers to pass. ICBC offers online and in-person testing. You must be at least 16 and complete the licensing steps before you can drive.

What to Study

Use Learn to Drive Smart as your starting point. Work through signs, road markings, intersections, hazard awareness and sharing the road. After each chapter, explain the rule in your own words before answering practice questions.

  • Recognize a sign and describe the action it asks you to take.
  • Work through right-of-way situations without relying on memorized answer order.
  • Review each missed answer, then return to that topic in the guide.

Online or at an ICBC Office

The test allows 45 minutes and costs $15. Online testing requires a suitable computer, webcam, accepted ID and payment card. Passing online does not give you permission to drive: you still need an office visit and your learner's licence issued.

Use ICBC's online-test page to check equipment requirements, or arrange an in-person knowledge-test appointment through ICBC.

Practise with the Reev App

Reev Tech Inc.'s ICBC knowledge-test preparation app is available on the App Store and Google Play. Use its lessons and practice questions alongside the official guide. It is an independent study app; practice questions are not a promise of the questions you will receive on test day.

BC road-route downloads are a separate Roadity feature and are coming soon.

Questions About BC Driving Tests

Is the BC knowledge test the same as Ontario's G1?

They serve a similar learner-licence purpose, but BC uses its own rules and ICBC testing. Choose BC study material for your L, rather than Ontario G1 questions.

Can I take the ICBC knowledge test online?

Yes. ICBC introduced online passenger-vehicle knowledge testing in June 2026. You must meet its identity and equipment requirements and complete the office steps before driving.
