In recent times, the RSA has come under increased scrutiny for their handling of the Irish driving test. At the start of the year, waiting times had reached an all-time high, leaving learner drivers across the country in outrage over the back log in the system.

Since then, waiting times have fallen, allowing many prospective drivers to sit their test, and hopefully swap their L plates for N’s.

Newstalk Reporter Dylan Hand has recently taken his own driving test, and joins Kieran to discuss how he got on.
