Back-to-school season is here! Happy first day back to everyone heading back to school this time of the year.

At King Pin Driving Academy, safety is always our priority. As students head back to school, we encourage everyone to stay alert and watch carefully for children, pedestrians, cyclists, and school buses.

Slow down, stay focused, and give yourself extra time, especially in school zones and residential areas. A few extra seconds could make all the difference.

Let’s work together to help keep everyone safe this school year!

We are incredibly honoured and excited to share that King Pin Driving Academy has been awarded Platinum in BOTH the Commercial Driver Training and Driving School categories in the CommunityVotes 2026 awards!

We truly cannot thank everyone enough who took the time to nominate us, vote for us, recommend us, and support our business.

Since opening, we have grown so much over the past year and a bit. When we first started, we never dreamed that we would be where we are today, having had the opportunity to meet, teach, and help so many amazing people in our community and the surrounding areas.

Every student who has walked through our doors, every person who has trusted us with their training, and every person who has supported King Pin along the way has played a part in getting us here.

This award means so much to us because it comes from the community we are proud to be a part of.

Thank you, Red Deer and surrounding communities, for believing in us and supporting us! We look forward to continuing to grow, continuing to serve our community, and most importantly, continuing to do what we do best: helping people become safe, confident, and successful drivers.

From all of us at King Pin Driving Academy, THANK YOU!

Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦

As we celebrate this beautiful country, many of us will be hitting the roads to spend time with family, head to the lake, or enjoy the long weekend.

With summer travel season in full swing, remember to:
Slow down and stay alert
Give extra space to campers, trailers, and larger vehicles
Plan ahead and allow extra travel time
Keep distractions off the road

Whether you’re travelling near or far, the best destination is arriving safely.

From all of us at King Pin Driving Academy: have a safe and happy Canada Day!
