Extend driving theory test certificates expiring by 12 months

Petition Details

The theory test certificate is currently valid for 2 years. The government should extend this period by 12 months for all certificates due to expire in 2022.

Due to the Covid 19 lockdowns, many driving tests have been cancelled through no fault of learner drivers.

Additional Information

Many learners’ theory certificates will expire due to the difficulties in booking driving tests this year. Some learners have not been able to book tests until 2023. The government should extend the theory test certificate’s validity so these learners are punished no further.
