The months-long wait that many Irish drivers have had to endure over the last two years ahead of their tests looks likely to continue for quite some time.
During the height of the pandemic, both driving lessons and testing services were put on hold as it was deemed too dangerous for instructors and testers to be in close quarters with the public.
As a result, Ireland’s driver backlog reached astronomical heights, and although everything is being done to clear the waitlist, it will be quite some time before normal timing resumes.
