This is the original version (as it was originally made). Northern Ireland Statutory Rules are not carried in their revised form on this site.
(This note is not part of the Regulations.)
These Regulations further amend the Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1996 (“the principal Regulations”) as follows.
Regulations 3 and 5 amend, respectively, regulations 2 and 29 of the principal Regulations by replacing the theory test currently taken by those wishing to obtain a driving licence with a two-part theory test. Part I of the new two-part theory test consists of the old theory test, consisting of a test of driving theory. Part II consists of a test of the candidate’s ability to recognise hazards to driving (a “hazard perception test”).
Regulation 4 increases the fee for a theory test in respect of any category of motor vehicle from £18 to £20·50.
