Under the Road Safety Authority Act 2006, the Road Safety Authority (RSA) has statutory responsibility for the National Driver Testing Service, including scheduling and appointments.
I am informed that in October 2023, to further assist with reducing waiting times, the RSA made a change to the system to allow any unused slots to be made available for anyone to take up at short notice. If a driving test is cancelled at short notice, the RSA now make this appointment available to the general public via MyRoadSafety portal.
