This is my dad's driving school. He's been doing this for a long time and can help you with the GLP or just hourly lessons depending on what you need.

happened to me last week, but in burnaby, and the driver was not asian. she was waiting for the traffic light northbound on kensington to turn left onto hastings, but she was waiting in the OPPOSITE LANE. myself and several others were eastbound on hastings trying to turn right onto kensington and we were going around both sides of her car, and she was yelling at us in a language i didn't understand and pointing her finger at us as we tried to get around her. she finally got half a clue when it was the transit bus' turn
