Wexford TD slams RSA on the backlog of driving tests

Wexford TD slams RSA on the backlog of driving tests

A Wexford TD has once again slammed the Road Safety Authority on the backlog of driving tests.

There are over 105 thousand people waiting for a driving test nationwide, and 2,000 of them are in the Model County, so says Johnny Mythen.

The RSA has promised that new test facilities and new testers would be put in place, but not all have been instated.

Speaking to Beat News, Mythen says promises of further testers have rung hollow.

"80 new tests were promised and they never appeared and that's what we are calling for."

"This was flagged months and months ago and we could see the issues down the line."

"And there are issues where young people cant get to work because they haven't got their driving tests which is ridiculous."
