About BC Driving Blog

Welcome to BC Driving Blog – Since 2012

Welcome to BC Driving Blog. I can not really explain this website except to say that I was basically born being obsessed with driving. I played car racing video games, stared at cars, asked for rides in cars, watched movies about cars, and wanted to become a driving instructor before I was even 16.

When I was a teenager I was kicked out of the house, which was the biggest blessing in disguise: my friends’ family adopted me, and taught me how to drive on their standard car, a Honda Civic.

When finally allowed – after having a full Class 5 for five years – I applied at a driving school, and magically was hired, even though I was only 22 years old (thanks Paul & Lisa). In the meantime, I got jobs at car washes and car dealerships, washing cars and driving customers home.

It was then that I quickly realized I really knew nothing about how to drive and driving, even though I of course thought I knew everything. Teaching driving was a lot different from actual driving, but I kept teaching driving lessons for many years to new drivers, seniors, drivers from other countries, and all types of folks on automatic and standard vehicles and a minivan in beautiful North Vancouver, West Vancouver, downtown Vancouver, Burnaby, and the surrounding areas in beautiful British Columbia.

After a while, I realized that teaching driving lessons to people one at a time was very tedious and that it would be impossible to reach everyone. I decided to turn my knowledge about teaching driving into a website that could be accessed by more people. My mission is a simple mission to help educate people about safe driving in British Columbia, Canada.

I’ve driven the Dempster Highway to Inuvik, NWT with my sister in a soccer-mom minivan and hope to do that again. I no longer teach driving lessons but the obsession is still real. I am excited to be focusing on creating more videos this year (2024) so please follow me on Instagram and/or YouTube to see what I’m up to.
