The Road Safety Authority, (RSA), the body responsible under the Road Safety Act for the operation of the Theory Test Service, is working to deliver an online driver theory test service.

A pilot online driver theory test is underway for trucks and buses. This will be extended to car and motorbikes drivers, initially with 3,200 online tests being conducted per month. Online services will be made more widely available towards the end of 2021.
