    hello.

    I got my provisional driving licence 3 years ago and have been driving for 2 of those years on provisional i did fail my driving test at the time but then i lost my job so i had to sell the car. now i am thinking of purchasing a new car and to get more driving lessons even though i can drive safely i will still need them to pass this test later. I have done and passed the theory test 3 years ago and i am wondering will i have to do the theory test again as i will be applying for a new lerner permit soon ? and is there anything else i will need to know as things have changed in the last year. thanks in advance.

    also will this affect me when i do apply for my provisional/learner permit soon as i have already passed the theory test years ago as i stated ?

    Learner drivers will still have to pass the theory test before getting a learner permit, and wait six months before applying to sit the driving test.

    * They will also have to complete a number of hours of training given by an approved driving instructor.

    * The RSA has suggested that 20 hours' training could be needed. This could cost up to €700.

    * An approved syllabus from the Road Safety Authority would also have to be completed. This will include coping with road hazards and will set out the responsibilities of drivers.

    * A log-book showing the number of hours spent practising would also have to be kept. This would be filled in by the accompanying driver.

    * Measures that have been ruled out include imposing curfews and banning the carrying of passengers by inexperienced drivers

    You will not have to re-sit the theory test.
    All that stuff after the asterixes are just proposals/conjecture at this point. Some or all of it may be introduced soon but not at this moment.
