Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Transport

The Road Safety Authority (RSA) has statutory responsibility for the operation of the driving test service. The Department of Transport does not have access to individual applications nor has the Minister any power to intervene in individual cases.

If an applicant is unhappy with how their driving test was conducted or feel they were unfairly treated, in the first instance they can submit a complaint to the RSA. Further information on this process can be found on the RSA website. Test outcome - I want to appeal or make a complaint (rsa.ie).
