Ontario G1 Practice Test in Polish – 50 Free Questions

Free G1 Practice Test in Polish — Built for Polish-Speaking Drivers

Ontario’s roads are full of drivers who learned Polish before they ever learned the Highway Traffic Act. From the Polish neighbourhoods of Mississauga to the shopfronts along Roncesvalles Avenue in Toronto, Polish-speaking newcomers and long-time residents alike need a way to study for the G1 knowledge test in the language they understand best. That is exactly what this page is for.

This is an unofficial practice test for study purposes and is not affiliated with the Ontario Ministry of Transportation or DriveTest.

The interactive test above is a 50-question G1 practice test, fully translated into Polski, built from practice questions using Ontario road signs. Every question shows an Ontario traffic sign, gives you instant feedback, and tracks your score as you go. Work through all 50, and keep retaking the test until you consistently score 90% or higher.

Once you’re comfortable with the signs, don’t forget the second half of the exam — our full 200-question G1 practice test covers the rules of the road as well.

What Is on the Ontario G1 Test?

The G1 knowledge test is a computer-based, multiple-choice exam taken at a DriveTest centre. It is not timed, and you get your result before you leave. Here is the exact format:

Section	Questions	Score needed to pass
Road signs	20	16/20 (80%)
Rules of the road	20	16/20 (80%)

The part most people underestimate: you must pass both sections independently. This page focuses on signs — pair it with our 200-question G1 practice test to cover the rules of the road too.

How to Use This Polish G1 Practice Test

1. Look carefully at each sign image. Every question shows an Ontario traffic sign in the same style you will see at the DriveTest centre.
2. Click the answer you think is correct. Green means correct; a wrong choice turns red and the correct answer turns green.
3. Use “Następne pytanie” to move forward. You can also press “Wyślij test” at any time to see your results early.
4. Review your score report. You will see total questions, answered, correct, wrong, percentage, and a pass/fail verdict (80% to pass).
5. Retake until you score 90%+. Hit “Rozpocznij test od nowa” and run it again — repetition is what builds sign recognition.

5 Study Tips to Pass Your G1 Test on the First Try

1. Read the official handbook alongside this test. The MTO’s official handbook is the source material for the knowledge test. Study it in English or French with a dictionary, then check your understanding against these Polish practice questions. For offline review, you can also download our free G1 questions and answers PDF.
2. Learn signs in families, not one by one. Regulatory signs (red, like stop and yield), warning signs (yellow diamonds, like curves and slippery roads), and information signs (green and blue) each follow visual patterns. Once you know the family, half the question is already answered.
3. Watch for “look-alike” pairs. The yield sign vs. the stop-ahead sign, the divided-highway-begins vs. divided-highway-ends signs, and the various no-turn signs are classic traps. This test includes all of them.
4. Do not ignore the rules section. Many test takers ace the signs and stumble on rules about demerit points, blood-alcohol limits, and G1 restrictions (no 400-series highways, midnight–5 a.m. curfew). Cover both halves before test day.
5. Simulate test day. Sit somewhere quiet, put your phone away, and run all 50 questions without notes — electronics are not allowed in the testing room.

Polish-Speaking G1 Test Takers: Local Challenges and Where to Get Help

Polish speakers usually arrive in Ontario with solid driving experience, since many learned to drive in Poland before immigrating — but the differences between Polish and Ontario road rules trip up even experienced drivers. The biggest adjustment is the right turn on red: in Poland, you may only turn right on red where a separate green arrow signal is lit, while in Ontario you can turn right on a solid red after coming to a complete stop and yielding, unless a sign forbids it. Many Polish test takers instinctively wait through the red light and then misjudge right-of-way questions about this rule. Four-way stops are another blind spot — they are almost nonexistent in Poland, where priority is governed by signs or the right-hand rule at unmarked intersections. Spend extra practice time on questions about who goes first at a four-way stop.

Road signs also differ more than expected. Poland follows the Vienna Convention, so warning signs are triangular with red borders, while Ontario uses yellow diamond warning signs. Stop signs match, but many regulatory and construction signs look unfamiliar, so study the Ontario sign set rather than relying on Polish habits.

Toronto’s Polish community is concentrated around Roncesvalles Avenue — the historic Polish Village — and in Etobicoke and Mississauga, where several driving schools employ Polish-speaking instructors who understand exactly which Polish habits cause G1 mistakes. Saturday Polish schools and parish community halls in these neighbourhoods sometimes host information sessions for newcomers. The DriveTest knowledge test is offered in multiple languages; check with your local DriveTest centre about Polish-language availability and whether audio headphones are provided.

Practical tip: if you already hold a valid Polish licence, research the licence exchange process before booking — experienced drivers can sometimes move to the G2 level directly, which changes which test you need to study for.

What to Bring to the DriveTest Centre

One last practical tip: if you wear contact lenses, bring your glasses as a backup. If a lens tears or irritates your eye on the way there, you can still pass the vision screening without stress.

Passing the knowledge test starts before you answer a single question: you have to get through the door prepared. DriveTest centres ask for identification that proves your legal name and date of birth, plus a second document in many cases. A passport, permanent resident card, or Canadian citizenship card covers the primary requirement for most newcomers; a second piece such as a foreign driver’s licence or utility bill helps if the clerk asks for more. Bring the originals, not photocopies, and make sure the names match across documents.

You will also take a vision test on the same visit, so bring your glasses or contact lenses if you need them to see clearly. If you fail the vision screening, you cannot proceed to the knowledge test that day, which wastes the trip. The knowledge test fee is modest compared with the cost of retaking it, so confirm the current fee on the DriveTest website before you go and bring a debit or credit card. Arrive early: larger centres in the Greater Toronto Area can have long lines, and a calm, unhurried start genuinely helps your concentration once the 40 questions are in front of you.

Frequently Asked Questions About the G1 Test in Polish

Is the real G1 test available in Polish?

This page lets you study the signs in Polski so you can learn the material in your own language first. It is worth confirming the current language options with your local DriveTest centre before you go.

How many questions are on the Ontario G1 test?

The knowledge test has 40 multiple-choice questions: 20 on road signs and 20 on rules of the road. This practice test has 50 sign questions to give you extra repetition on the section most people find trickiest.

What score do I need to pass the G1 test?

You need at least 16 out of 20 (80%) in each section. Failing one section means failing the whole test, even if you aced the other half.

What should I bring to the DriveTest centre?

Bring original identification showing your legal name and date of birth, plus glasses or contacts if you need them to drive. The G1 licence package fee is $159.75, which covers the knowledge test, your first G2 road test, and a five-year licence. (Fees can change — check DriveTest for current amounts.) You must be at least 16 and an Ontario resident.

Can I take the G1 test online?

No. The knowledge test must be taken in person at a DriveTest centre (or the ServiceOntario Bay and College location in downtown Toronto, by appointment). Phones, notes, and study materials are not allowed in the testing room.

What happens if I fail the G1 test?

You can pay the retest fee and try again — a knowledge-test retake currently costs $16 — and if you retake it within a year, you only rewrite the section you didn’t pass. It still pays to practice here until you’re consistently scoring above 80%. (Fees can change, so confirm current amounts at DriveTest when you book.)

Preparing with family or friends who prefer a different language? This same free 50-question test is also available in French, Spanish, Hindi, Russian, Portuguese, and Italian.
