The RSA is working to deliver an online driver theory test service.

A pilot online driver theory test is underway for trucks and buses. This will be extended to car drivers on a limited basis by the end of this month, initially with 3,200 online tests being conducted per month.

Online services will be made more widely available towards the end of 2021.
