To drive in Alberta as a new resident, you may be asked to do a test driver, depending on where you come from. Your current license is valid for three months from the date of arrival. If you have a valid international driving license then you have 12 months or until expiration, whichever is earlier for the operator Alberta.
The license is usually carried out at the local registry office and you need written permission before purchasing theand road tests. You must also provide two pieces of identification and immigration status for the process of licensing.
There are seven classes of license in Alberta, if you have heavy objects or car large to focus then take the two classes does the 7:05 is possible for a student license for 14 years with the consent applies parents.
Class 7 is your students for this license, you must take and pass a written test and an eye exam. TheQuestions for written proof of the Basic License-Drivers available manual that removed from the registry office or online. It 'important to study this manual prior to the meeting for consideration, as different rules of the road in Alberta, must understand that you are.
Once you have spent your class 7 license, then take the road test. You must have the vehicle for road test the vehicle and the examiner to ensure that trafficworthy.
After passing the driving test you will receive your license class 5 driving with the unit in Alberta and entitled to be renewed every five years.
I was very nervous after a test driver to take it again, but it was easy, the road test and got over 13 years ago in England. My advice is to study the handbook well, a lot of driving experience to go with new rules and only for them, once he feels safe. If you fail, you can do it again the nextTag! You must always carry a valid driving license, valid insurance and vehicle registration when driving in Alberta. If you get stopped by police and can not produce, there is a hefty fine.
All traffic laws are strictly upheld by the police and you are fine. For example, Calgary city fines were in excess of $ 25,000,000 for the year 2003. So, to stop at stop signs and stop in every case and the way for pedestrians who have right of way.

General Information
Although the price of gas (petrol) in Canada, there is growing is still relatively cheap for most of the western world in comparison. For example, the 2006 prices are around C $ 1.12 per liter for regular (unleaded), about C $ 1.17 for mid grade and C $ 1.19 for premium. Diesel is slowly becoming more popular, and C is approximately $ 0.90 per liter. The price fluctuations haveespecially with rising oil prices worldwide are occurring, but at least the price falls when the price of oil falls.
There is a wide range of vehicles to choose from – the North American models will be replaced by imports from the Far East more reliable. It 's definitely a trade-off – less than the reliability and power-hungry people begin to move towards the consumption of fuel and the car further away from European-style gas increased. Sport Utility Vehicles (SUV)are abundant, but rarely seem to be off road use!
Speed limits are set in kilometers per hour and are usually quite conservative. In a residential area, close to schools or urban centers, the limit of 30 km / h, the other in the community / city 50 km / h its limit. The highways are 100-110 km / h, but slower in the vicinity of villages or small towns. These cases closely monitored by radar in cars or stationary. Practically from the moment you see them you're too late!

I grew up in Alberta. Their vehicle insurance and registration policies are completely different and are more complicated than what you have with ICBC.You will need to phone an insurance broker directly to get a quote. It doesn't take very long and it will give you an idea of what you're in for. Unlike ICBC, your insurance rate will depend on all sorts of factors, including any demerits and convictions, your age, your job, and how long you've continually insured your own car (motorcycles, scooters, and your parents' cars don't count). If you are under 25, have any demerits, or haven't owned a car for very long, I would guess that you're going to have to pay more than $100 per month. But you should call to find out for sure.
To get your car registered, you first purchase your drivers license from the registry. At the same time you will also purchase a piece of paper that lets you get an out-of-province vehicle inspection. You then take your car into Canadian Tire for inspection, which for me cost $250 (more than twice what it cost me BC, by the way). You'll also have to pay them to fix whatever they find wrong with your car. If your windshield has even the slightest chip they will make you replace it, which can cost $600 to $700. If you already have window insurance in BC it would probably be a good idea to replace your windshield here under your current insurance, or at least find out if you're covered should you have to replace the windshield in Alberta.
You then need to find an insurance company. You should get quotes from a number of different brokers, because rates will vary between companies. You'll also need to provide them with a BC driving abstract and insurance history that includes any claims, demerits, and convictions. You can call ICBC toll free and they will fax or email this information to your insurance broker for free. Once you have your pink slip from your insurance company, and a vehicle inspection certificate, you can go back to the registry and finally register your car.
