The Road Safety Authority says it’s ‘delivered’ on its Driving Test Action Plan, reducing waiting times to a 10-week average.
From June to August, it conducted more than 74,000 driving tests, which is a 17% increase on the same period last year.
It says applications remain at record levels, with 192,373 driving test applications received between January and August.
Just a number of months ago, people in Donegal were waiting up to 26 weeks for a driving test, which has now been reduced to 10 weeks in Donegal Town, 8 weeks in Buncrana, and tests are available before the end of the month in Letterkenny.
