Driving Safely When Roads Are Flooded

Driving on wet or flooded roads presents difficulties that require awareness, preparation, and careful decision-making. From reduced visibility to the risk of hydroplaning and becoming stranded, challenging road conditions can pose hazards to drivers.

Parking in Tight Spots Without Stress: Driver Tips

Driving into a busy city centre, a crowded mall parkade, or a popular restaurant district often brings one immediate, sinking feeling: the anxiety of parking. It's one thing to handle the traffic on the Trans-Canada Highway or navigate the roundabout in Langley; it's quite another to squeeze your vehicle into a space clearly designed for a compact car when you're driving a minivan. This is particularly challenging for new drivers, as every parallel park or reverse stall parking attempt feels like a public performance.

 

Scooter vs Motorcycle Licence in BC: Which Do You Need?

What to Expect at Your First Driving Lesson

Taking your first driving lesson is an exciting step toward gaining independence on the road. To help ease any uncertainty, it's helpful to know what to expect.

"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"
