Petition Extend the driving theory test expiry time from two to three years

I would like the Government to extend the expiry dates for driving theory tests from the current two years to three, until the backlog is resolved.

More details

Currently it can take 6-8 months to get a driving test. Learners are experiencing huge wait times and in some cases additional costs to secure practical tests before their passed theory tests expire. Around 50% don't pass the practical test first time, making it difficult for many to book and pass a practical driving test before their theory test expiration date. This has led to some learners paying more during a cost of living crisis.
