Driving Licence Changes January 2013
From January 2013, all new driving licences and learner permits will be in credit card-sized format as part of the EU Directive 2006/126/EU. Through its National Driving Licence Service (NDLS), the RSA will produce all future driving licences and learner permits in this new format from 19 January 2013.

The new licence will be standardised and therefore easily recognisable across Europe. Because it’s plastic, smaller and carries a microchip, it will be easier to carry and more secure.

Who can get the new licence
After 19 January, 2013, the new plastic card licence will be available for those who need a new or renewed licence. You can only apply if:

you’ve passed your driving test and are applying for your first driver licence
you’re renewing your learner permit / driving licence
you’re exchanging a foreign driving licence for an Irish driving licence
All old paper licences are valid for a maximum of 10 years and will remain in place until their expiry date. For more information see How to apply.

What exactly will be changing?
From 19 January 2013, all new and renewable learner permits and driving licences will be issued in plastic credit-card sized format instead of paper.

At present, learner permit and driving licence applications are handled by local authority Motor Taxation Offices and this will still be the case for much of 2013. The service will be transferred to the NDLS by September 2013.

Until the transfer is complete, Motor Taxation Offices will still process all applications and the new-style licence will be produced and delivered by a specialist company. It is important to note, though, that even though Motor Taxation Offices will process the applications until September 2013, they will not be able to issue driving licences over the counter from January 2013.

Why has 19 January 2013 been chosen for the changeover?
Under EU law, Ireland, along with all other EU member states, must introduce a new credit card sized driving licence by 19 January 2013. While some EU countries already have a plastic card licence format, they are not all the same - there are over 100 different styles of licence across EU countries. The new card being issued will be standardised across all EU member states.

Cabinet agrees new Road Traffic Bill - Varadkar

Specific ban on texting, and new range of penalty points for mobile phone use, speeding, seatbelts and driving unaccompanied

New road safety measures are among a range of provisions in the Road Traffic Bill 2012 signed off by Cabinet today, including new and higher penalty points on key offences and a specific ban on text messages while driving, Minister for Transport, Tourism & Sport Leo Varadkar has confirmed.

“Ireland has made huge strides in reducing road deaths, under successive governments. However, we can never become complacent about road safety. The Christmas safety campaign launched this week should remind people to be vigilant over the festive season. My Department is also bringing forward a range of other long-term measures in the Road Traffic Bill 2012. Ireland is currently ranked sixth in the EU for road safety. I want us to become the safest country in Europe,” Minister Varadkar said.

The new Bill will include a Graduated Driver Licensing system. The Graduated system will include a new category of Novice Driver, covering people in their first two years after qualification. This will be denoted by an ‘N’ plate on vehicles.

Novice and learner drivers will be subject to a new, lower threshold of six penalty points for automatic disqualification, rather than the normal 12. The lower alcohol limit of 20mg (‘virtual zero’) already applies to L and N plate drivers, as well as professional drivers.

The Penalty Points system is also being adjusted in light of a review conducted earlier this year. This review involved consultations with a range of groups, including the Oireachtas Transport Committee involving members of the Opposition.

The changes to the Penalty Points are as follows:

Learner drivers who are driving without a qualified driver will face penalty points for the first time with 2 penalty points applying (4 on conviction);
Not displaying L or N plates will face penalty points for the first time, with 2 penalty points applying (4 on conviction);
Penalty points for mobile phone use, including the new provision related to texting, will rise from 2 to 3 points (5 on conviction);
Penalty points for speeding will rise from 2 to 3 points (5 on conviction) –contingent on the conclusion of the current review of speed limits;
Penalty points for not wearing a seatbelt will rise from 2 to 3 points (5 on conviction).

The Bill will allow a blood sample to be taken from an unconscious driver following a serious road traffic collision, and tested when they give their consent.

Non-technological tests for impaired driving – such as walking a straight line, pupil dilation – will in future be usable as evidence in Court. This test can be used to detect drug driving.

The Bill will also strengthen the law in relation to texting while driving by making it an offence to use or handle the keypad of a mobile phone for the purpose of texting or receiving information. While the current legislation makes it an offence to hold a mobile phone while driving, the new Bill will clarify that this also relates to texting.

It will be possible for the first time to prohibit the driving of a vehicle which has been deemed unroadworthy by the NCT. There will also be enabling legislation to allow local authorities to provide parking and charging bays for electric vehicles and for car clubs. These and other measures provided for in the Bill will help to promote safer driving on our roads, as well as safer vehicles.

Following approval of the proposals by Government, legal drafting of the Bill will now take place in the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel. The Minister hopes to bring the Bill before the Oireachtas early in 2013.

The proposals are currently available on the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport website.

RSA appeals to Parents and Children this Halloween

The Road Safety Authority (RSA) is appealing to parents and children, today 31st October, to ‘Be Safe and Seen’ while trick-or-treating this Halloween.
“Halloween is a time of fun for children and their parents. But it's important to stay safe especially when out visiting friends and neighbours when ‘trick or treating’,” Said Mr. Noel Brett, CEO, Road Safety Authority.

The RSA has the following tips for parents whose children are planning to go ‘Trick or Treating’:

It’s important that children are supervised by an adult as children will be very excited about getting sweets and treats. They may dart across the street without checking for cars. The RSA recommends that parents go trick-or-treating with children under 12.
Speak to your child about the importance of staying safe when walking on the footpath or road before you leave the house to go trick-or-treating. Children will often be so excited about going trick-or-treating that they may not hear or heed your warnings if you bring up safety tips when you are actually out and about.
Children will be out while it’s dark, so it’s hard for them to see and hard for drivers to see them. Consider having your child carry a flashlight, wear an armband or use a glow stick which is a fun and novel way for the kids to be seen. Children will love wearing them too. Why not consider sewing reflective materials on your child’s costume if it doesn’t already come with them.
Children often cannot see well when wearing masks, big hats, and other costume accessories that can obstruct their vision. So it’s important to be by their side to ensure their safety.
Try to avoid costumes that are billowing or too long as they increase the chances your child tripping
“The clocks went back at the weekend so darkness is upon us much earlier in the evenings now. This means that it will be dusk or darkness when children and their parents are setting out to go trick or treating. By following these basic but crucial safety tips we can keep everyone safe, and ensure fun is had by all this Halloween.” Concluded Mr. Brett

October Bank Holiday 2012

As we head into the October bank holiday weekend, we must remind ourselves that tragically 141* people have already lost their lives on Irish Roads. Although this represents 5 fewer deaths than this period last year, the stark fact is that between now and the end of the year there will be more collisions involving more loss of life. Over the past few days in particular we have seen tragic examples of what can happen on our roads. In saying that, it is possible to take simple steps to make it safer for all road users.

It is obvious to all that we have moved into the colder, wetter and darker weather so we must remind all road users to take extra care whilst driving, cycling, riding and walking on our roads. Vulnerable road users such as pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists must make themselves as visible as possible when on unlit or poorly lit roads. The wearing of high visibility clothing etc increases the chances of being seen by up to 325%. This could be vital for your safety, in poor visibility. The months of October, November and December are particularly high risk with 15, 18 and 18 deaths respectively in 2011.

All motorists should now be thinking “winter ready” and making preparations to make their vehicle safe for the colder weather ahead. Tyres, servicing, lights, wipers, washer fluid etc should all be checked. Most importantly, if a windscreen is iced over every driver must wait until it has cleared completely not only on the outside, but also clear from condensation on the inside before setting out on their journey.

We also ask that every vehicle user take conditions into account when gauging their speed, and drive at the appropriate safe speed for every journey.

A particular focus this weekend and going forward is the learner permit holder. Four operations have now been held this year targeting learner permit holders and their legal obligations to have a fully qualified driver with them at all times, plus the display of L plates. Although the compliance rate has increased since the first operation in March, it remains at an unacceptably high level, and this will continue to be addressed in future operations.

Minister for Transport, Tourism & Sport Leo Varadkar TD said: ‘This weekend, as with every bank holiday, there is a greater risk of deaths and serious injuries on our roads. With the clocks going back this weekend, there will also be fewer hours of daylight. This makes it even more important to be visible on the roads. If we could all learn one thing from the tragedy of road collisions, it would be how quickly and easily lives can be shattered. So I am asking everyone: young, old, cyclists, pedestrians, motorcyclists and drivers, to be extra careful on the roads this weekend’.

Assistant Commissioner Gerard Phillips said today:-

“Every road user must have already noticed the change in weather. It is colder, wetter and certainly darker for longer. Our message is to each and every road user to take all necessary steps to protect themselves no matter how they use the roads. Vehicle users need to check their vehicles, and make sure they are “winter ready”. Every driver should also be adjusting their speed to drive at an appropriate safe speed for all the conditions around them. Pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists need to see and be seen. Hi visibility clothing is not expensive, and it makes a massive difference in the ability of others to see you early on a dark or poorly lit road.”

Assistant Commissioner Phillips continued:-

“We have run 4 separate operations targeting our learner permit holders. Since these started in March we have seen an increase in compliance with regards to being accompanied by a fully qualified driver and displaying L plates. For that we thank the public. For those though that continue to think that they can drive without adhering to these legally required conditions, we strongly advise you to think again. These requirements are there for your and every road user’s protection and there will be a continued focus on ensuring our learner driver’s do it right. The message is simple; if you are a learner permit holder, remember you are learning to drive. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you know it all!”

Commenting on ‘Operation Learner Driver’, Mr. Noel Brett, CEO, Road Safety Authority welcomed the Garda enforcement of the rules of the road relating to learner drivers, “A learner permit is just that, a permit, it is not a driving licence. A Learner Permit places restrictions on a learner driver because they are inexperienced and therefore vulnerable road users. The restrictions include, that they be accompanied by a driver who has held their full licence for more than two years and that ‘L’ plates are displayed at all times to alert other drivers to the presence of a learner driver.”

“Waiting times for a driving test or access to quality tuition are no longer excuses for driving long term or breaching the terms of the Learner Permit. There are almost 2,000 Approved Driving Instructors (ADI) nationwide, registered with the RSA, who are able to provide a high standard of tuition to candidates. Waiting times for the driving test have been cut dramatically and are below a ten week national average and in some places this waiting time is lower. If someone needs an urgent driving test, for example to secure a job, we can prioritise that candidate for a test.”

“There is also an issue of parental responsibility involved here and I would appeal directly to the parents of young learner drivers to stop turning a blind eye to what’s going on and do not allow their son or daughter access to a vehicle, unless they are accompanied and have ‘L’ plates displayed. Finally I would urge everyone to take extra care when using the roads over the bank holiday weekend. Thanks to our changed behaviour on the roads over the last number of years, it is possible to achieve a weekend with no fatalities, and what an achievement that would be.” Said Mr. Brett

LEARNERS and newly qualified drivers will be put off the road if they clock up just six penalty points under tough new rules to become law next summer.

The government has decided to halve the number of points a learner driver can rack up before they are banned for six months.

The measure is also likely to be applied to offending motorists for two years after they pass their test, the Irish Independent has learned.

Newly qualified drivers will also have to display an 'N' for 'novice' plate for the two years after passing their test.

The measures are aimed at cutting the number of deaths on our roads.

They will also mean an increase in penalty points for speeding (up from two to four), mobile phone use (from two to three or four) and failing to wear a seatbelt (from two to three).

This means that learner and new drivers caught speeding and making a phonecall at the wheel face being banned for six months. Penalty points may also be introduced for drivers who fail to display L or N plates.

The move comes after the Government considered a range of options, including doubling penalty points offences for learner and new drivers, in an effort to encourage them to drive safely.

But instead of doubling the points accrued for offences, th Road Traffic Bill to be published in the coming weeks will see the total points limit halved for these motorists.

Currently, drivers must get 12 points before being banned but these new drivers will be limited to six.

So far this year, 135 people have been killed on the roads -- down eight on the same period in 2011 -- and Ireland is among the safest countries in the EU in which to drive.

But Transport Minister Leo Varadkar said the move was part of efforts to further reduce deaths and serious injuries.

"Thousands of people have died on the roads over the last few decades and Ireland is now in the top-six safest countries, which didn't happen overnight," he said.

Gards Siochana Press Release - Embargoed until Sunday 6th May @ 9pm

Operation Learner Driver - 43% of learner permit holders drive unaccompanied

Road Safety is every road user’s responsibility. Tragically 58 people have already lost their lives on our roads so far this year. This is 7 road deaths less than this period last year.

The majority of road users have adopted safer behaviours and played their part in reducing the pain and grief that comes with every fatal or serious injury road collision. With this in mind, we appeal to every road user to once again play their part in continuing with this reduction in road deaths.

Enforcement by An Garda Síochána will continue to focus on high risk behaviour such as speeding, drink or drug driving, non use of seatbelts, reckless driving and use of mobile phones. A particular focus will also be on the Learner Driver. From 2 recent operations targeting Learner Drivers we find that a significant percentage of those are not abiding by the conditions of holding that permit. Of the 2200 drivers checked, 43% (946) were un-accompanied by a full licence holder, and 30% (660) were not displaying L plates. In some cases both offences were committed by the same driver.

Assistant Commissioner John O’ Mahoney said today:

“We appeal to all road users to continue to do all they can in keeping our roads as safe as they can be. Although 7 less people have been killed on our roads, we saw an increase in April 2012 compared to April 2011 (18 versus 8). We must be mindful that any mistake on the road can lead to very serious consequences for all involved. We especially wish to remind all learner permit holders of their legal obligations with regards to displaying L-plates, being accompanied by qualified drivers at all times and motorway restrictions. A recent series of operations highlighted the fact that as high as 43% of learner permit holders were in breach of these conditions. Driving is a skill which must be practised to improve that skill. As a learner you are doing exactly that, learning, to drive. All vehicle owners should also ensure that any learner permit holder driving their vehicle is accompanied by a fully qualified driver and displays L plates at all times. An Garda Síochána will continue to prioritise the enforcement to these road traffic regulations to ensure greater compliance by Learner Drivers. ”

Commenting on ‘Operation Learner Driver’, Mr. Noel Brett, CEO, Road Safety Authority while disappointed at the high number of novice drivers detected welcomed the Garda enforcement of these vital road safety laws, “A learner permit is just that, a permit, it is not a driving licence. A Learner Permit allows an individual to learn to drive under certain conditions, until they are ready to take a driving test. These include, that they be accompanied by a driver who has held their full licence for more than two years and that ‘L’ plates are displayed at all times to alert other drivers to the presence of a novice driver. These laws are there to protect this group who are vulnerable road users by the fact that they are inexperienced drivers.”

“There are now over 2,000 Approved Driving Instructors (ADI) nationwide, registered with the RSA, who are able to provide a high standard of tuition to candidates. They are also providing tuition under the new RSA’s mandatory Essential Driver Training Programme, which requires anyone who received their first Learner Permit since the 4th April 2011 to undertake 12 hours of compulsory driving tuition. Waiting times for the driving test have been cut dramatically and are below a ten week national average and in some places this waiting time is lower. If someone needs an urgent driving test, for example to secure a job, we can prioritise that candidate for a test. Waiting times for a driving test or access to quality tuition are no longer excuses for driving long term or breaching the terms of the Learner Permit.”

“There is also an issue of parental responsibility involved here and I would appeal directly to the parents of young learner drivers to stop turning a blind eye to what’s going on and do not allow their son or daughter access to a vehicle, unless they are accompanied and have ‘L’ plates displayed.”

“It is also worth pointing out that a learner permit holder who is not adhering to the requirements for that licence and who is involved in a collision will be covered for third party liability but their insurance provider may not cover any other costs and may seek to recover costs for the non compliant driver,” concluded Mr. Brett.

A list of over 2,000 Approved Driving Instructors (ADI) nationwide can be found on the RSA’s website.

Commenting on results of the Garda enforcement Mr. Garry Redmond, President, Union of Students in Ireland, said “I am concerned by the number of Learner Drivers who are driving unaccompanied. Such drivers pose a real risk not only to other drivers and vulnerable road users but also to themselves. As a learner driver you simply have not proven that you are a safe and competent driver, no matter how many lessons you have taken. So it’s vital that you drive accompanied by a fully qualified driver whenever using the road.”

Mr. Redmond added that, “the USI is fully supportive of such campaigns by An Garda Síochána to eliminate this irresponsible driving practice and would remind drivers of the consequences of driving unaccompanied. Furthermore we will continue to work with both the Gardai and the RSA to promote road safety on campuses across the country.”

Road Safety Alert – Heavy Rainfall

The Road Safety Authority (RSA) is advising all road users to take extra care using the roads as heavy rain is expected across the country today, Tuesday 24th April. Some periods of very heavy rainfall are expected from this afternoon through to Thursday with accumulations leading to excess surface water on roads and some flooding in places. Intense bursts of heavy rainfall today and tomorrow will increase the risk of flooding in parts, which will affect all of the country, particularly the south of the country, pushing north later on Wednesday afternoon.

The poor weather will create potentially hazardous conditions for road users. As such the RSA is advising drivers that;

· It takes longer to stop a vehicle on wet roads so slow down and allow extra distance between you and the vehicle in front, 4 seconds at a minimum (use the 2 second rule and repeat it twice).

· Take special care when driving behind trucks or buses as they generate a considerable amount of spray which reduces your visibility,

· Watch out for vulnerable road users such as pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists.

· Use dipped headlights at all times of poor visibility not parking/side lights and fog lights.

· Check tyres and replace them if the thread depth is below 3mm.

· Be mindful of Aquaplaning on roads where 100/120kmh speeds apply. Aquaplaning occurs where the tyre thread fill with water and the driver is at risk of losing control of the vehicle.

· Pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists are advised to be seen. Wear bright clothing with reflective armbands or a reflective belt.

· Pedestrians should walk on a footpath, not in the street. Walk on the right hand side of the road, facing traffic if there are no footpaths.

The RSA also has the following advice for driving in flooded conditions

If the road ahead is flooded choose another route, do not attempt to drive through it. Flooded roads that appear shallow could be deeper than you think.

After going through water, drive slowly with your foot on the brake pedal for a short distance - this helps to dry the brakes.

Sometimes roads can be closed due to their fragile state after wet weather or because they are blocked by flooding.

Road users should always follow recommended routes and obey signs closing roads to traffic.

Watch out for washed out roads, earth slides, broken water or sewer mains, loose or downed electrical wires, and fallen or falling objects.

Further advice on using the road in severe weather can be found at the RSA’s website;

ETSC urges for zero tolerance to alcohol on EU roads

Please find below a report from the ETSC on Drink Driving in the EU.

This ETSC policy paper provides an overview of the drink driving situation in the European Union (Chapter 1) and measures taken at the EU level to curb drink driving deaths (Chapter 2). ETSC calls on Member States and the European Institutions to adopt a zero tolerance for drink driving. Other ETSC recommendations to Member States and the European Union are also included in Chapter 3.

Chapter 4 looks at countries’ progress in reducing road deaths attributed to drink driving between 2001 and 2010. Road deaths attributed to alcohol have been cut by 53% between 2001 and 2010 in these countries, while other road deaths decreased by 47%. Ireland achieved impressive reductions in cutting alcohol related deaths from 124 in 2003 to 48 in 2007. Slovakia cut drink driving deaths from 50 in 2001 to an average of 15 per year in 2008-2010. Latvia, Bulgaria, Hungary, Sweden, Slovenia, Lithuania, Germany, Belgium, Greece and Austria also reduced drink driving deaths faster than other road deaths.

Chapter 5 presents a case study of four European countries: the Czech Republic, Ireland, Norway and Sweden. Successes and shortcomings of drink driving policies are discussed with national experts from these four countries. The implementation of alcohol interlocks in Norway, the adoption of a lower BAC limit in Ireland or the effect of zero tolerance for drink driving in the Czech Republic and the impact of Vision Zero to support the fight against drink driving in Sweden are among the good practices implemented in those countries.

April 2012
ETSC urges for zero tolerance to alcohol on EU roads

Drink driving unfortunately remains one of the three main killers on our roads. We must all take action to reduce this unacceptable behaviour which claims so many lives every year, said Antonio Avenoso, ETSC Executive Director during the event dedicated to tackling drink driving.
Siim Kallas, European Commission Vice-President responsible for Transport, delivered the keynote address at the conference. It is unacceptable for 85 people to die every day on Europe's roads. Alcohol-impaired road users are still involved in about a quarter of all fatal crashes in Europe. This is a very worrying situation. But if we work together to raise awareness, to enforce the rules better and to change people's driving habits, then we can truly make a difference in bringing down the number of road deaths, said Mr. Kallas.

Essential Driver Training (EDT) is a mandatory training course that teaches fundamental driving skills to learner car drivers. It is part of the RSA’s Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) scheme and is intended to improve road safety.

EDT is only part of the learning process, you will need lots of practice and may need more lesson to become a safe driver.

Why do I need EDT?

Studies show that young drivers and inexperienced drivers are more likely to die or be seriously injured in collisions, and EDT is one of several measures introduced by the RSA to help improve critical driving knowledge, skills and behaviours of new drivers.

If the issue date of your first B category (Car) learner permit is on or after 4 April 2011, in order to be able to sit your full driving test, you must first complete all EDT lessons.

If you are not required to complete EDT, you may still choose to take an EDT course, as it can help increase your chances of passing the driving test and will help make you a better safer driver.

What does EDT involve?

EDT is a course of 12 one-hour lessons. These lessons are designed to cover certain critical driving skills and improve your practical driving skills.

As you complete each lesson, your Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) will record your progress in a specially issued logbook.

You should also have a Sponsor, an experienced driver (many learner drivers choose a family member) who will supervise your driving practice outside of lessons, and will also track your progress in your logbook.

After you finish your EDT course, you may still need additional lessons with an ADI to improve your driving skills. Additionally, you should practice with your Sponsor as much as possible to get comfortable behind the wheel.

On the day of your driving test, you should bring your completed logbook on the appointed test date, as you may be required to show it to the examiner.

What does EDT cost?

There is no set charge for EDT lessons and each ADI sets their own fees. The RSA recommends that you ring several ADI's to enquire about the fees and and also to see if the if the ADI is right for you. Recommendations from family and friends may also prove useful in helping you to make your choice.

Find an ADI

EDT can only be delivered by an RSA-approved instructor, an ADI. To find an available ADI, look on the ADI register. You may switch ADIs during the EDT course, but remember to get your current ADI to sign off on your completed lessons before you make any changes.

Benefits of EDT

Completing your essential driver training course will help you to:

Understand what it means to be a better safer driver.
Practice your driving skills in a structured way that is focussed on your own learning needs.
Develop lifelong skills that will make you a better safer driver.
