Sean Clark+FollowLearner Drivers Going the DistancePeople are literally traveling across the country just to take their driving test! With a massive backlog and average wait times of 22 weeks (and some saying it could last until 2027), desperate learners are booking tests hours away from home. Some are waking up at 5am every week to refresh the site, while others are shelling out big money to third-party resellers. The system’s so broken, it’s become a road trip just to get your license! #Transportation #DrivingTest #LearnerDriver00Share
Traci Keller+FollowDriving Test Drama: Touts, Backlogs & Big BucksDid you know some driving instructors are getting offered £250 a month just for their test booking logins? Touts are block-booking driving tests and reselling them for way more than the usual £75, making the test backlog even worse. Learners are stuck waiting months or shelling out hundreds just to get a slot. The Lib Dems want a full investigation, but will it actually fix the mess? #Transportation #DrivingTest #Scandal00Share
Joe Gallagher+FollowDriving Test Drama: Touts vs LearnersDid you know some driving instructors are allegedly selling their test booking logins to touts for £250 a month? These touts then block-book slots and resell them to desperate learners, making the test backlog even worse. Some people are paying hundreds just to get a test, or traveling miles for a slot! The Lib Dems want a full investigation, and the government is promising crackdowns. Wild, right? Would you pay extra just to get your license sooner? #Transportation #DrivingTest #Backlog00Share
