    Why should we help lawbreakers. Hopefully the Gardai will especially enforce the law where unlicenced drivers are carrying children.

    Agreed, it's not like they haven't known for long enough that these new laws were coming. There's no excuse for not having sat the test in the past 6 months, and if you've sat it and failed it then you're the reason the law is now there.

    I'm guessing you're not very good at passing English tests either.

    It might be an idea that if you fail within a certain amount, they put you on a shortlist for callback early, in case of cancellation. That way people who just completely blow the test get bumped to the back of the queue (as they should be) and people who fail by a relatively small margin can get a week or two of practice, iron out whatever kink there was, and resit in a fast time period.

    Closing silly threads is an even better way to help them!
