Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 May 2017
542. Deputy Paul Kehoe asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the options open to a person aged 90 years of age whose driving licence expired in April 2017; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22811/17]
View answerA driving licence may be renewed for up to ten years after the date on which it has expired.
An applicant in the circumstances described by the Deputy would therefore be able to apply to renew their driving licence in the normal way. As with all applications from persons aged 70 and over, the application would have to be accompanied by an eyesight report and a medical fitness report.
