In Ireland, since the 25th April 2001 a Driving Theory Test must be undertaken (and passed !) before a person can obtain their 1st provisional driving licence.
The test is conducted on a computer monitor where 40 multi-choice questions are selected at random from a bank of over 1250. 35 questions must be answered correctly to achieve a pass.
From the 21st October 2006 500 new questions were added to the data bank..
Now, in Watch House Cross Community Library, you can book an hour on a computer to practice for this test using the Official Driver Theory Test CD-ROM.
Enquire at the library desk for details.
