HOW TO BOOK A LESSON
- We prefer text messages to book lessons and car rental for the test. However, you can always call us for any additional information. We provide in-car lessons from 7 am to 8 pm from Monday to Friday. Weekend lessons are also available on special conditions including extra fees. Since all our instructors remains booked, students will need to book lessons well ahead of their desired date. Based on students given availability our office will select the instructor and share the instructor's contact information to the student. Instructor will make the schedule based on students abailibility and update the student. Student must accept the given schedule by text message.
Canceling a Booked Lesson
- Our cancellation policy follows the industry standard. For example, if a test taker does not cancel a road test at least 48 hours in advance, the MTO revokes the full fee. At Roadcraft Driving School, we do not accept walk-in clients—all lessons are pre-booked. We appreciate your understanding and consideration, as a late cancellation or no-show results in a loss of hours and income for the instructor. We require at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule a lesson or road test; otherwise, a late cancellation fee may apply: $20 per hour if canceled within 24 hours but more than 6 hours before the lesson, $30 per hour if canceled within 6 hours but more than 2 hours before, and $50 per hour if canceled within 2 hours of the lesson or for a no-show.
