About AAPEX Driving Academy

Committed to Collision Prevention

AAPEX – The Smart Consumer's Choice

AAPEX DRIVING ACADEMY has been providing safety education and excellent customer service since 1988. We are proud to be the Reader's Choice Award Winner from 2003 - 2020. As a Ministry of Transportation (MTO) approved Beginner Driver Education Course Provider, our course curriculum, in-class/in-car instructors, and vehicles meet or exceed all MTO standards.

The AAPEX program consists of 40 hours of training — 20 hours in-class, 10 hours behind the wheel, and 10 hours homelinks. During the hours of in-class instruction and 10 hours of private one-on-one in-car instruction, our emphasis is on collision prevention.

Look, Predict, Prevent

Our Collision Prevention Licensing Philosophy.

We believe that there is no such thing as "accidents"; the vast majority of so-called "accidents" are predictable and preventable. Most drivers have never had effective driver training. They lack education in defensive driving, risk evaluation maneuvers, and head-on or rear-end crash avoidance. Since "accidents" can be predicted, we teach how to look, predict and prevent effectively. There are no short cuts when it comes to driver safety; and that's what we teach all our students.
