There has been a threefold increase in the number of people waiting for driving tests in recent months. In County Longford, people must wait almost four months for a test, which is unfair. In their current form, the tests seem to be failing the drivers who pass them and who are let loose on our roads and other road users who are at the mercy of these apparently inept individuals. The most dangerous drivers on our roads are those who have just passed their driving tests. This begs the question as to the flaws in driver training and whether the Minister is prepared to take the necessary steps to review and amend the system, particularly in light of the stranglehold the insurance industry exerts on motorists as it continues to charge exorbitant premiums in the absence of checks by the Government.
