There will be an important change to Drivers Ed classes in school this year.
MPI is adding gravel road driving to the curriculum.
The reason gravel road driving wasn’t in the curriculum earlier is that in Winnipeg it can be difficult getting to a gravel road from some parts of the city.
Most instructors took their students on gravel roads before the curriculum change if they could.
If the novice driver doesn’t feel comfortable driving on gravel roads they won’t have to, it’s all conditional on the competence and confidence of the driver.
