Safety NL Newfoundland

A 70-Year Commitment to Newfoundland Safety

When it comes to learning to drive on the Avalon Peninsula, experience matters. Safety NL (formerly the Newfoundland and Labrador Safety Council) has been the province’s primary voice for public safety since the 1950s. We aren’t just a business; we are a community-based, non-profit organization dedicated to saving lives on Newfoundland’s unique roads.

Located at our regional training center on Moffatt Road in Mount Pearl, we provide a structured and professional environment for new drivers. Because we are a non-profit, we take pride in offering high-quality instruction with **zero HST charged to our students**. We believe professional safety training should be accessible to every family in Metro St. John’s.

Multicultural and Inclusive Instruction

St. John’s is more diverse than ever, and we are proud to lead the way in inclusive training. We are one of the only organizations in the province to offer in-car instruction in multiple languages, including **Ukrainian, Polish, and Russian**. We understand that the nuances of defensive driving are best learned in your primary language, ensuring every student feels supported and confident.

Mastering the Metro St. John’s Routes

Our “Learn To Drive” program goes beyond the basics to prepare you for the realities of city driving. We spend dedicated time on the varied terrain of the metro area—from the high-speed merges of the Team Gushue Highway to the narrow, snowy side streets of the downtown core. We provide pickup and drop-off services within 25km of our office, ensuring that whether you’re in Torbay, Paradise, or CBS, you have access to the best training on “The Rock.”
