80 extra driving testers needed to cut wait times to 10 weeks by next year

Waiting times for drivers to sit their test can be as long as 25 weeks due to Covid-19 restrictions.
The Road Safety Authority (RSA) needs another 80 testers to get driving test waiting times down to 10 weeks by next March.
The Authority's CEO Sam Waide told the Oireachtas Transport Committee today that waiting times for tests could not be given to many people, but the committee later heard that they can be up as high as 25 weeks currently due to Covid-19 restrictions.
