Irish Department of Transport postpones provisional license crackdown amid backlog concerns.
The Irish Department of Transport has postponed a crackdown on motorists with long-held provisional licenses due to concerns that it could worsen the existing backlog of driving tests. Over 230,000 learner permit holders have yet to take a test, and officials worry that a surge in applications could further strain the system, which currently sees a 10-week wait. The department plans to address the issue once the backlog is resolved.
